    Library names persist through language change while searching in Start Menu


    After changing the Windows Display Language library names are translated properly, but the folders were created in a different language and their names aren't changed, so I suppose that's causing the issue:Installed Windows in Polish -> Changed to English -> Library names have to be searched for in Polish in the Start Menu for them to be foundIs there a way to either:a Safely change the names of library folders in a way that doesn't break anythingb Make Start Menu searching look for the actual library names and not the folder names of libraries?***Moved from Windows / Windows 10 / Cort

    :)

    Hi, Yes. I tried changing my primary SSD from MBR to GPT via Ease Us Partition Tool. All my other drives besides the main successfully converted but not my primary disk. When the application was trying to convert the disk I received a Kernal In Page Error.
