Windows is set to use English, but Microsoft Store appears in French.

I could cope with German, but English would be preferable.

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Microsoft Store

    Thanks Greg,

    Is the YouTube video suggesting I change the country in the whole of Windows for the sake of the Microsoft Store?

    There is no language option at the bottom of the Store app and changing it in a browser doesn't seem to affect the app.

    Thanks Gregg,

    I will uninstall the app so it doesn't pop up anymore.

    Very silly design.

    Beware uninstalling Store app, Roger, as it can cause unintended consequences and must have a Repair Install to reinstall it.

    The tutorial I gave first and wrote about just above it says to make the change in the Store ONLINE not in the App. See illustration below:
