My Edge language settings are all set to English but when I open Edge, the language is Thai.  How do I rectify this?

    Hi Peter,

    Good day! I am Independent Advisor Louie S.. and a Microsoft/Windows user just like you. I am glad to be able to provide assistance for you today.

    The new Microsoft Edge defaults to use the same language as your system.

    To change the language:

    1. Go to Settings and more > Settings .
    2. Select Languages from the Settings list.
    3. To add a language to the list of Preferred languages, select Add languages.
    4. Once the language is added, select next to the language, and then choose Display Microsoft Edge in this language.

    Hope it helps. Let me know if you need anything else!

    Sincerely,

    Louie S.

    Have exactly the same problem as a foreigner living in Hungary - MS Edge now displaying everything in Hungarian and seemingly no way to change it back to my system language which is English.

    Dear Louie,

    There's been an Edge upgrade since last we communicated earlier this week.  Settings still come through in Thai but I saw a long box at the bottom of the menu and when I clicked on it, it was clearly for language selection - when I checked English, the whole display changed to English.  Problem solved!  Thanks for your help.

    Regards

    Peter

    Dear Louie,

    I've moved US English to the top of the list and engaged it as the display language for Edge.  Now however the problem is worse - before settings at least were in English but now they too are in Thai.

    Have you any other ideas?

    Regards,

    Peter

    I have the same problem, but with French. My laptop did an update while in France and now everything pops up in French. Checked all my settings and French isn't even an added laungage
