    My locale is in chinese


    My locale for some reason is in Chinese. It says 美国 which I am fairly certain means America. In short is there any way to make this English, and why would it even be in Chinese in the first place.

    :)

  2. "Chinese Characters" program delaying shutdown - a different approach.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your response.

    • As you have mentioned this happens only in the Admin account, is it local account set as admin account or the Microsoft account?
    I would suggest you to check the all apps list and check if that Chinese character app is present.

    After you try the above steps and share us the results what happens we can proceed with the further suggestions.

    Please post us back with the results after troubleshooting the above steps and check.

    Keep us posted to help you better.
