Change language of Activity Report in Microsoft Family Account

Hi Edika,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

Appreciate your efforts to work on this issue.

Is there any console connected to the PC?

If yes, then you can also check the language settings on that console to see if that helps.

Further, suggest you to make these changes in the Region and Language setting on the PC to check if that makes any difference.

Open Start > Settings > Time & Language >
Region & language.

Make sure your Country or region is set to Italy and your default language is
Italian.

If that does not work, sign into
https://account.microsoft.com/family/

Scroll to the very bottom, then click the ‘Globe icon’ and make sure
Italiano or Italia is set as your language.

Please let us know if you need any assistance.

Regards,

Srimadhwa B

Changes in Microsoft family

Changes in Microsoft family

There’s a lot happening over the next few months. We’ll update this page regularly to give you the latest on Microsoft family.

Updates

Recent activity you can act on

On the redesigned recent activity page, you can see how your kids are spending their time on each PC, from the apps and games they’re using to the websites they’re visiting. And while you’re looking at their recent activity, you can decide whether or not something is right for them, and block or allow it right there.

Simpler settings
We’ve heard your feedback that some of the settings are too confusing and hard to use. So, we’ve made some changes to make it easier -

For web filtering, we reduced the options down to a few crucial ways to keep your kids safe when they're online. We now automatically block adult content in their web browsers, and if your kids are very young, you can allow them to access only specific web sites that you want them to see.

For apps & games, we've simplified how restrictions are set. You can choose an age setting for them, and based on that, they'll be able to only download apps and games that have been rated appropriate for their age.

For screen timers, we've taken the complex graphs and settings and simplified them down, while giving you the flexibility to easily control when your kids can use the PC.

We believe all these changes will make it easier for you to manage your kids settings on their Windows devices.

A new home for family
Family Safety is now part of account.microsoft.com, which is the single place to manage everything connected to your account. To manage your family and kids’ settings, go to account.microsoft.com/family. Right now some of the settings pages still live on the old site—some things will look the same, and some will look different—but over the next few months, everything will be updated and moved to account.microsoft.com/family.

Changes to linked accounts
If you’ve linked your kids’ Family Safety accounts, you’ll see that each of them are listed individually and that you now have to manage their settings separately for each device. We know this may be painful for some of you, but we’re doing this to make way for a simpler, better experience: roaming your child’s settings with their Microsoft account. We appreciate your patience as we make these changes. A few other notes:

If devices show up on your list that you no longer use, you can select “Remove” to get rid of them.

You’ll get a separate activity report email for each device.

Coming soon

Kids’ settings go with them
On Windows 10, you’ll need a Microsoft account in order to use Microsoft family whether you’re a part of a family as an adult or a child. When kids are added to a Microsoft family with a Microsoft account, any time they sign in to a Windows 10 device, their settings will be applied and their activity will be reported to the adults in their family. Adults can always turn off activity reporting or remove kids from the Microsoft family at account.microsoft.com/family.

Windows 8.1 update changed the language, can't change back

Maybe, these will help... it seems it is a common enough problem.

Language packs are no longer available after you upgrade to Windows 8.1

And, sort of the same here --> Add a language or keyboard

Quote from above MS web page:

Spoiler Download and install language packs
You'll need to download the language pack if you want to make a language your Windows display language (that's the language you see most often in Windows and apps).

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)

Tap or click Time and language, and then tap or click Region and language.

Tap or click a language that says Language pack available underneath, and then tap or click Options.

Tap or click Download. The download process might take a while, depending on your PC and the size of the language pack.
If you want to make this your display language, see the next section "Change your Windows display language".

Change your Windows display language
To change your Windows display language (that's the language you see most often in Windows and apps), first add a language, download and install the language pack, and then follow these steps.

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)

Tap or click Time and language, and then tap or click Region and language.

Tap or click the language that you want to set as your display language.

Tap or click Set as primary to move the language to the top of the list. If the language can become your Windows display language, you'll see Will be display language after next sign-in appear under the language.

Sign out and then sign back in to finish.

And here is some more info --> Add Language Packs to Windows
