Windows 10 language issue
Hello
I am French and purchased a Surface Pro tablet in Korea. I changed Windows language settings to French but there are still many Windows notifications in Korean (at start up, some menu items...). How can I have a complete French version of Windows 10? Thanks

Hey here is the steps to change your windows 10 surface tablet language and make primary to french
Log into the Account where you want to change the language
Go to PC Settings (bring up the charms bar, tap Settings then, Change PC settings at the bottom of the screen)
On the PC Settings screen, select Time and Language
Select Region and language then Add a language from the Time and Language settings page
Select a language from the list. When you do so, you may get another page (like below) of regional selections.
Select the language again then tap Set as Primary to french
To get the change to take effect, you’ll need to either sign out and back in or restart your Surface
Under Language options, click Download to download the French language pack.
Once the language pack has downloaded, go back to Region & language, click the French language and click Set as primary.

Thanks but all what you described has already been done. I have downloaded the French package and it is set as my primary language. That's why MOST of windows language is in French. BUT there are still some notifications written in Korean. Just like Windows forgot to translate them

The language change settings procedure detailed are correct and will change a genuine Surface Pro tablet to your selected language...
You may have made incorrect settings or your Surface Pro tablet from Korea may be a fake / copy ... thus it will never work correctly outside of Korean language.
Good Luck on solving this issue.

Just what part that I stated is "not true"?
Also provide your own solution rather than a link only ... links can be used to back up your own solution but not be the solution ... EE rules:

"You may have made incorrect settings or your Surface Pro tablet from Korea"
This conclusion covers all possible errors? or does it not? :)

Sorry if i have upset you, I was just pointing out that this behavior he sees has been seen by others, nobus and me, too. And that implies that telling him that these procedures "will change a genuine Surface Pro tablet to your selected language..." is not true in any case. Not more, not less, but again: sorry.
About my link: this is no solution. This is the procedure needed to complete the language transformation. Otherwise, it is not system wide, but just for one user. So it was an addition to what he already did (and what you and Ankit asked him to do). I told him what to do and (just like you did) provided a link to an explanatory howto. This is as far from hurting the guidelines/ee rules as could be :)

This solved the issue! Thanks!
What did, copying the language to the system account?
Just following the instructions in the link you provided. Two boxes to check then reboot
Glad you got it solved :)
