  1. Language in some apps in Japanese despite me changing language settings back to English.


    Hello! A few months ago, I changed my language settings for non unicode programs to Japanese so I could use a program without it being in broken text. Now, after not needing that app anymore, I uninstalled it and changed my language settings back to EnglishCanada. Still, some apps, like Paint 3D, are in Japanese. Can anyone give me any advice on how to fix this? Thanks.

    :)

    Updated Twitter app changed language. Unable to return to English

    I used the previous version of the twitter app on windows 10 without problems. My preferred language was English and so was the interface. After updating to the new version of the app, the app now has an interface in Hebrew and displays from right to left. I've done all I could think of to change it back to English and left-to-right direction but nothing works.


    • The language selected in the app Settings is English.
    • The Windows 10 display language is English
    • I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, both through Apps and Features and PowerShell. The newly installed app immediately logs into my twitter account. Since I completely removed the app from the pc, where does the app take that login info from? Are there settings files hidden somewhere that control the way the app behaves and even override the in-app language settings?
    • I even searched the registry for my login info but didn't find anything meaningful.
    • I also tried changing locale in windows itself. It too didn't work.

    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Thank you for providing us the opportunity to assist you.

    As per the issue description you are willing to change the language back to English which get changed after installing November update in China.
    I would appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

    • Is the issue specific to some apps or with all apps?

    Step 1: Set the display language to English by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

      Settings and select the top most search result.

    In many cases, the Windows Store will automatically notify you if there’s a problem with an app and try to fix the problem. If you continue experiencing problems with an app, this tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and the Store.
