Windows 10: Edge language/region

So I've changed from Chrome to Edge recently.

It's all nice and have no problem with transition but there's one thing that annoys the $hit out of me.

Why doesn't Edge stick to the language/region settings of my system? It keeps changing to 'local' language and region whenever I search for anything. Using Google search, I have to click on 'Show results in English'.

Every. Time.

Doesn't matter if it's inPrivate browsing or normal Edge. My settings are all English and US, but it just refuses to stick to language and region settings of system and Edge.

Chrome never had this problem. Google search on Chrome never had this problem. It's only Edge and it's driving me insane without no given 'fix'.

Has anyone figured out how to fix or experiencing same issue?
