    Hi Jean,

    We appreciate you for being part of Windows 10.

    I understand that you want to use French language on Windows 10 instead of English.

    Kindly follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    I suggest you to change the Language and date & time settings again. Follow the below steps.


    • Open the Start menu and type
      Settings in the search bar.

    • Click on Time and Language.

    • Select the Region and Language and make sure that you select
      Country and region to French Guina.

    • Under the Language click on
      Add a language
      and download the French language pack.

    • After the language pack has downloaded, click on
      French language pack and Set as default

    • Close the settings and Reboot the computer for the changes to take effect.
    I suggest you to change the time of the system also accordingly for the changes to take effectively.

  3. Why are half my Windows 10 Apps in French

    I have a Lenovo Flex Laptop that is about 3 years old, I've been running windows 10 on it since it came out and recently I have been adjusting my languages settings to see if I could get Cortana to work better. However by doing this I've managed to change
    half of my Windows Apps to French. As in Mail is Courrier but Photos in still Photos. Anyone know how to change it back? I thankfully am fluent in French but I find it distracting and hard to find things when half are in French and half in English because
    alphabetically they have all moved.

    Microsoft Store is half english/half french

    Most of the Windows Store is English, exactly how it should be. But the categories and the default languages for movies is French.

    I cant understand this since only have English en-CH & Deutsch (Schweiz) under the Region Settings, which both has nothing to do with French.
