  1. Chinese text showing up in random places; English is the defaul language


    Hello all,


    This is a strange one and it's difficult to search for help because of other common problems with displaying Chinese text.


    A computer shows Chinese at seemingly random places. I will post screenshots below. English US is the only language in the computer's language settings. I tried installing the UK English pack and set it to that to test but nothing changed. Now it IS possible that at some point in the past Chinese was installed on here, but I don't see it now.


    Most things are displaying properly in English, but when I look at the wifi adapter settings, for example, some of it is in Chinese. Please see pics for other examples.


    Anyone have any ideas?
