Hi fg,
Thanks, I know all that, I read all your previous explanations.
I was just telling Drew how to remove the offending package and what to install in case he wants a good working package.

Hi fg,

If I knew the command line for this specific pack, I would sure use it. Tired what you showed, changing US to UK, but to no avail.
To find Apps full names use
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Select Name, PackageFullName
Using asterisks makes it easier.
Get-AppxPackage *LanguageExperiencePack* | Remove-AppxPackage
Then, you can install the correct package but as already explained by fg, to avoid the bug you have to install the previous version.
Hi Sibro,
The problem goes away just removing the pack that introduced the bug, installing the previous version was just to prove that it worked fine before the update, that pack added from the MS Store is just updating the language.
From what I see it is not an absolute requirement, can still run fine just with the basic language package installed without the App that is supposed to keep the language current. (Or just screwing it up like in this case. 🤣 )
Perhaps I got this wrong, but I could delete my added language pack
Hi vienna10,
Two different things.
The one causing the problem is not the basic language package, it is the English (xxxx yyyy) Local Experience Pack that is added through the MS Store.
With the command below on P.S. you can find out if there is one installed, the one showing here is before the update that screwed up, Version 22534.1.1.0 was fine, the bugs started with Version 22535.1.1.0 for the US pack.
Different versions for other languages.
Get-AppxPackage -allusers | Select Name, PackageFullName
Sorry to butt in, but I believe you can change, or delete it via Control Panel. Same with the keyboard
Hi vienna10,
The option to uninstall is not available.
To find the full name you can use this P.S. command, it will show probably at the bottom of the P.S. list
Get-AppxPackage -allusers | Select Name, PackageFullName
Here is the full name for the English (United Kingdom) Local Experience Pack:
Microsoft.LanguageExperiencePacken-GB Microsoft.LanguageExperiencePacken-GB_22537.1.1.0_neutral__8wekyb3...
Here is the P.S. cmd to remove the en-GB pack:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.LanguageExperiencePacken-GB -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
