Question

Windows 10 Language help

Jul 15, 2016 10:23PM PDT

Hey all,

I'll preface this with a disclaimer that I am a Mac user normally but am helping a work colleague with their PC.

I work in Thailand and my company has purchased an Asus K455L laptop for my colleague.

I am trying to change the language on it and it keeps displaying content in Thai!

I have changed:
- Language settings on PC
- Set English as default language
- language settings on Chrome

but it is still appearing in Thai!!!

I have changed, shut down, restarted etc etc thinking that may help but NOPE! All programs display their tab in English and then revert to Thai once opened.

If anyone can please tell me the answer to my problems it'd be very appreciated.
I am sure it is a simple click of a button somewhere!

the document file or the operating system? If it's the operating system, I don't believe it can be change without changing the OS itself.

That change, it's not going to change apps.

Almost all those apps are in the language the OS was installed as. This one sounds like you need the English version of the OS.

There's no way to change the display language of a Single Language edition, apart from reinstalling Windows .
