to go to Region and Language settings in the Control Panel. The shortcut is to simply type region and language in the search box. Windows has included this search box option right from Windows Vista onward so this shouldn’t be a problem.
For a more scenic route in Windows 10, click the Start button and go to Settings>Time & Language>Region & Language> and either add a new language or set English(United States) as the default language. The process is somewhat different in Windows 8/8.1 and 7 but not so much that you can’t locate the language setting.
In Windows 8/8.1, open the Charms bar by passing your cursor on the right edge of your screen (or by pressing Windows button + C). Then select Settings>Change PC Settings>Time and Language>Region and Language. From this point you either add a new language or set one as default which in this case will be English (United States) or vice versa if you have a UK Keyboard layout.
Windows 7 quite more roundabout. Open Start Menu>Control Panel>Clock, Language and Region>Region and Language. Select Keyboards and Languages>Change Keyboards>. From here you can either add a new language, set your preferred language as default or remove languages you don’t use.
And you’re having kippers for breakfast!
