Windows 10: Settings Language - keyboard - override no longer works in Win 10 Pro N 21H2

I've been using Win 10 Pro N on this machine for 6 years. I'm an English speaker based in Japan and have my default language set to English, with Japanese IME installed and set as the keyboard override.Just last week I upgraded to 21H2. The override no longer works - every time I reboot I find myself switched in to the ENG keyboard, and I have to manually switch to the IME keyboard. It's annoying; it's especially annoying because the Settings Language - keyboard - override setting seems specifically designed to counter this; because it used to; and because an 'upgrade' broke it.Has anyon

Can't add different languages keyboard layouts to Win 10 Pro

 

How do I set this new Surface Book Pro up so the default system language is English?

Original Title - Windows 10 Language List

We recently purchased a Surface Book Pro. The person setting up the machine accidentally set the default language to French. After a bit of French to English translation (web tool) I was able to get all of the language settings back to English. However,
when I go to Settings > Region & Language the language is set to "English (United States) Windows display language (override)". On another Surface Book Pro (set up using English as the language choice) the language is set to "English (United States) Windows
display language. The "(override)" portion is not present in the second (English setup) Surface Book Pro.

Back to the Surface Book Pro set up using French. If I click on Additional date, time & regional settings > language I land on the change you language preferences page. English (United States) is the only language displayed. When I click on the Options link
(right side of the row) I see that English (United States) Window display language is listed as Enabled (override). If I click on Change override I am taken to the Advanced Settings screen where I see the Override for Windows Display Language under which is
a comment "If you want to use a display language that's different than the one determined by the order of your language list, choose it here". I then select the drop down menu and I am presented with "Use language list (recommended), francais (France), and
English (United States).

I want to remove francais (France) from my language list, however, I have been unsuccessful in finding out how to remove the language from the Surface Book Pro. I have tried all kinds of steps suggested in multiple forums, however, in most cases when the
suggested fix says I should now see French, or francais(France), all I see is English.

Question: How do I set this new Surface Book Pro up so the default system language is English? ... or ... How do I remove the French language pack from the Surface Book Pro so I no longer get the "Windows display language (override)" message?
