    My Windows 10 won't display all menu items in English only Russian


    Hi

    I recently purchased a new acer computer in Russia. It was running win8 and I upgraded to Win10 online.

    I have since tried to switch the menu languages and everything to English but can't figure out how to get it to work completely in English.

    Often used windows apps in the start menu all appear in english (maps, people, calculator etc..) but actual words Often used are in Russian. As are all menu items in windows explorer etc..and other windows programs.

    When I go to time and Language settings and then Region and Language its setup as USA and English USA, don't even see Russian listed there.

    Any help how to resolve?

    Thank you very much!

    Dan

    :)

  2. How to change account/store/phone display language in Windows 10 phone?

    I updated old Nokia with Window 8 to Alcatel IDOL4S with Windows 10 system. I used the same account to setup my new phone. Apparently this account had a language somewhere set to Russian. After few reboots my phone has several applications -Phone, Messaging,
    Mail, Weather and Maps showing russian language which I do not want . Microsoft store also connects to russian region store, I believe. I went through all possible places that may have region/language setting and set it to English(USA). Now Phone region is
    set to English (USA), phone display language is set to English (USA), account region set to English(USA) and MS Store online language is set to English(USA). But my phone still shows russian app names or russian sentences everywhere - in Messaging, Mail etc.
    How can I change ALL phone to use English only language and English only apps??

  3. Translation bug in phone's settings when change phone's language from Russian to English (United States)

    Hello,

    I'm using WIndows Phone 8.1 and I found a small thing with translation from Russian to English and vice verse.



    Pre-conditions:

    1. Phone uses Russian language (Settings -> language ->русский).

    2. All settings' names and their summaries are translated into Russian.



    Steps:

    1. Change phone's language in settings (Settings -> language ->English (United States)).

    2. Restart phone.



    Actual results:

    1. Summary for touch menu item (Settings -> touch) isn't translated into English (United States)).

    2. Summary for network+ menu item (Settings -> network+) isn't translated into English (United States)).



    Additional info:

    1. To translate summaries for "touch" and "network+" menus just pick this menu items and they'll be translated into
    English (United States)).

    2. If summaries for "touch" and "network+" weren't translated into phone's language (using step 1 from additional info), then the summaries after phone's restart will be changed correctly (into phone's language,
    English (United States) in our case).

    3. This case works for translation English(United States) -> Russian and for Russian -> English(United States).



    Environment:

    Microsoft Lumia 535 DUAL SIM

    OS Version: 8.10.14234.375

    Software: Windows Phone 8.1 Update

    My Windows 10 won't display all menu items in English only Russian

    Did you install the english language pack? Look in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Language and see if English says "Windows display language: Enabled". If not click on Options (on the same screen), download the language pack and then click on Make this the primary language

    Please download ShowKey Plus from here and post the results (but redact the actual key number).

    Depending on what key you have (Pro, Home, Single language) you may be able to re-install in English without upgrading. I don't know the answer to that but others here certainly do.
