Windows – Default language mix up in Windows 10

languagelanguage-packwindowswindows 10

I added a language (in Region & Language) and then I changed the default display language to the new language. It worked. Now when I changed the display language back to "English" again, it didn't really happen for everything. I see non-English characters in start and search as shown below:

Restarting the system and redoing the whole process don't fix it. How can this be fixed?

Did you also try changing the system locale? Try the following, if that fails, perhaps try a system restore to a point before you made changes (if the checkpoint is available):

  1. In search tab type "Region" and press enter.
  2. In new window select "Administrative"
  3. then click on "change system locale"
  4. Select the language.
