    Installed language packs change the displayed language of certain apps away from the default

    Hello BradShadwick, my name is Vanessa, and I would be happy to help.

    Surely frustrating, in theory the solution to the problem you are experiencing is quite simple. When installing a language pack in Windows, it changes the display language
    of certain applications, but not the system in general. This means that even if you have the display language of your system configured to English, applications that use
    the installed language pack will display their content in the language of the pack.

    In your case, the Japanese language pack is changing the display language of Windows and Xbox apps. To fix this problem, you need to uninstall the Japanese language pack.
    Once you have done this, all apps will return to displaying their content in the display language of your system, which in your case is English.

    If you want to continue using the Japanese keyboard, you can install it separately. To do this, open the Settings app, go to "Time & Language" and then click "Languages". In the "Installed languages" section, click the "Manage languages" button. In the "Manage languages" window, click the Japanese language pack and then click the "Options" button. In the "Language options" window, uncheck the "Install keyboard" checkbox and then click the "OK" button.

    Once you have done this, the Japanese keyboard will be installed without changing the display language of your system.

    Here are the detailed steps on how to uninstall the Japanese language pack:

    Steps on how to uninstall the Japanese language pack in Windows

    Open the Settings app.
    Go to "Time & Language".
    Click "Languages".
    In the "Installed languages" section, click the Japanese language pack.
    Click the "Uninstall" button.
    In the confirmation window, click "Uninstall".
    If you are still having problems after uninstalling the Japanese language pack, you can try updating Windows to the latest version. Windows updates can sometimes fix language-
    related issues.

    If you are unable to resolve your issue, please let me know so that I can research the issue. As far as I know, this is something that should be fixed by Windows itself, but if not, I will need to investigate. Good luck!

    Certainly, I investigated to strengthen what I tell you, and part of the information
    you can verify it from here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ge-pack/aee0abd1-b864-4784-850b-7618b5fc7415:

    How i change the language on Xbox APP

    Hey, I found a similar thread with the solution. I'll quote it an provide it as a reference for you, "Xbox App uses the language that you have assigned
    as your preferred Windows language. In order to change that, search for "Language" (type this in your Windows language if you're not using the English version) in the search bar on Windows and then the language panel will come up. (It's the same panel you
    use if you want to change keyboard preferences) The language which is in the top, is the one that the Store and all it's apps use. Just get the language you prefer in the first spot and the Store along with all the apps and your keyboard will use this as preferred
    language." That was from user snikefriend.

    How do i change language in ARK windows app

    Try with changing your location/region in your console and PC to make them match.

    If not, visit your MS account and check if the language/region is settled for Russia/Russian.

    If not, try deleting the game, and reinstalling it from the UA MS Store.
