    English Canada defaults to English UK


    I recently installed windows 10 in my machine and one of the first things I did was to change my display language to English Canada.

    I immediately noticed all the websites I tried to access since then would default me automatically to United Kingdom and English UK.

    After messing around in the Language settings, I found out that in my Administrative Language Settings, when I click to copy the settings to the Logon Screen and new user accounts, it does say that my display language is actually English United Kingdom.

    Could this be a bug on a recent build?

    Is there any workaround to make my display language be actually English Canada?

  2. Cannot download English (Canada) speech package in Windows 10

    A fix was released as part of KB3081424, Cumulative Update for Windows 10: August 5, 2015, for a problem Cortana was experiencing when installing language packs. Please make sure you've installed the latest Windows Updates before trying these steps.

    1. Press Windows + I keys on the keyboard to open settings menu
    2. Click on Time and language and select region and language.
    3. Under Language option, check which language is Set as default.
    4. If you find different language, you can change it by clicking on Add a language option.
    5. Select your preferred language (English Canada) and click on Set as default under English UK language.
    6. Now, click on English Canada and click on Options.
    7. Download the language, handwriting and speech packs.
    8. Now, click on Speech from the Time and language settings menu.
    9. Check if you are able to select the speech settings to English Canada.
    10. After performing above steps, check if you are able to use Cortana.
