windows 11 widget language issue
- Just found a solution: Change windows display language and logoff then login, you'll find Widgets in desired language. Note: I had Widgets in Arabic, tried to change language in website to United States (English) but the language only changed for website (which is opened in Edge) then had this thought: Wait, how would changing website language changes an app language. So i changed Region to United States and Tada: Widgets became in English.
Nikhil_Gupta year later, still the same
@same issue in belgium (english US and French as languages) > widget in dutch :///
Same issue for me (also living in Belgium). When clicking on the "house" icon, top left of the (dutch) widgets screen, the http://www.msn.com/nl-be/feed?ocid=winp2fp is generated and I would like http://www.msn.com/fr-be/feed?ocid=winp2fp instead. Where is that "nl-be" located ?
- Only way I got widget language changed was from Settings - Time & Language - Country or Region and after that reboot or logout-login.
Still the same issue :
So now it's October '22, and there's STILL no viable solution?
My language settings are ALL US, I've even deleted Chinese as a reading language AND an IME, and the widgets are STILL displaying in Chinese(S). I think it's time to move to Ubuntu.
What are the folks in Redmond doing, exactly?
Ken_J_And now it is November 2022, almost December, and Microsoft STILL cannot get this SIMPLE issue to actually work. I want to use widgets, but when I go into it, it's all in Thai. I live in Thailand but that doesn't mean I want my ENGLISH LANGUAGE computer to show me stories and sports in Thai. Get off your backsides, Microsoft and fix this already! I had to turn off widgets as they are USELESS to me! This is why I bought a Macbook. At least Apple knows what they are doing and cares about their users. All my sites and widgets are in ENGLISH! Microsoft = FAIL!
projectredwolves Reading through all this it hits me that you have to change the region to US but then you will only get news of US. The other settings like currency, date, I go in and set it manually for where you are. I had to set mine to USA so that the weather would show in English but then I try to configure the other widgets to be Japan or Thailand news.
