Newest Bing not saving language settings
I have to continually reset language preferences to English as Bing seems to always default back to Japanese, but I have configured all settings in the browser to display U.S. English. Other posts I have seen are several years old on this topic. Also, should it be possible to have one's region settings set for the correct time zone you're in, yet have all displayed tabs, news, etc. be in the language of choice?
I was able to finally fix the issue of Bing settings not saving after closing Edge. This is for desktops. I have Windows 11.
The issue as I understand it, at least for me, was Edge clearing caches when closing. In doing so, it clears "Cookies and other site data," which in turn clears the settings for Bing.
To fix:
- Go to your browser Settings > Privacy, search, and services. Not
Bing's settings.
- Scroll down to Clear Browsing Data.
- Click on Choose what to clear every time you close your browser.
- Find Cookies and other site data.
- Under that you will see Don't clear and an Add button to
the right.
- Click the Add button.
- Under Site type "[*.]bing.com" and click save.
Try that, go back to Bing and reset them. Close browser and test it.
Hope that helps!
