    How to completely remove Japanese language pack from Windows 10


    I briefly switched my computer's language to Japanese, and after switching back to US English, Japanese still shows up when I type, for example, "settings" into the Windows search bar. My display language is set to US English, but there's a Japanese character next to the language pack name. This appeared after I first downloaded and switched my computer to Japanese. Is there a way to fix this? I've deleted the Japanese language pack and restarted my computer, but nothing has changed. I've attached a screenshot of my Region & Language settings page for reference. Thanks!
