Look at the Taskbar at the bottom. Next to the loudspeaker icon, it should say 'ES' or something like that.The Mrs has bought her parents a Teclast F15 laptop computer. Neither of are thick at computers but we're trying to set it up for her folks and we just can't permanently get it off Spanish language. I've tried to find links on both Google and Youtube to solve this but no joy yet. Has anyone got any advice please?.
Thank you Mytho .. her folks are still here and we're all on the wine atm so I'll be doing that tomorrow thanks mate X .. will be good for them to join the 21st century at last ..Look at the Taskbar at the bottom. Next to the loudspeaker icon, it should say 'ES' or something like that.

If no English keyboard option is displayed in this little menu, click on the 'Language preferences' option.
In the pop-up window, click on 'Add a language' and select English (United Kingdom). Follow the on-screen instructions.
Once a language is installed, it can be selected in the 'Windows display language' drop-down.
Hope that does it.
Glad it worked OK!Sweet, that's all worked mate. The Mrs says "give him (you) a kiss from me!"
Her folks are on the way now to pick it up now. It was going to be tomorrow but they're too excited to wait.Glad it worked OK!
Can't say I'd come across S mode before, but it seems to be a security feature that only allows you to use products that are in the MS app store. That is quite restrictive, but if all the products you will ever use are in the MS app store, then you could just leave it in S mode.I've just had a new laptop, since my (still perfectly serviceable) previous one has Windows 7, and I'm aware that's a version of Windows that does not, and will not, receive security updates.
Anyway, after a bit of searching and comparing specs, I've ended up with a shiny new Acer Aspire with Windows 10. So far, so good, but I see that it's currently set to "S" mode. I've read up on this a bit, and can't see any major downside (for my needs, at least) to leaving it in "S". I note that it can be easily switched to "normal", but that's a one-way process. Any thoughts about the pros or cons of W10 S that I might want to ponder?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks - that was pretty much my reading of it, too, so it's reassuring to hear your take. I think I'd be minded to leave it in S unless or until it becomes restrictive.Can't say I'd come across S mode before, but it seems to be a security feature that only allows you to use products that are in the MS app store.

Okay, so if you've been following my issues with getting the music from my PC onto my phone, you'll know where I'm up to.
Try contacting a mod on that forum via email. They may have an issue with their outgoing email server.Help....joined a classic rock forum recently. It says I am logged in as a member, but can't post until I follow the confirmation email link they are sending. But it never gets to me...and I have resent it to me multiple times.
So I registered under another name and email and tried again...same problem...the confirmation link never gets to me. Whats going on..?
btw..it didn't end up in the spam...I looked.
I did...I sent the admin 3 emails explaining the issue...no response on those either.Try contacting a mod on that forum via email. They may have an issue with their outgoing email server.
Check your spam folder, just in case.I did...I sent the admin 3 emails explaining the issue...no response on those either.
I cant send pms either. I had to use a forum help email...tht was the only thing open.
I did...everytime...nothing.Check your spam folder, just in case.
Alright, long shot... I don't know if you get into blocking domain names or particular addresses for spam, but I do (well, did, Hotmail made that impossible to do from your spam folder now).I suspect a software issue between theirs and Google. I use....this has happened to several older web sites lately and Google.

A lot of spammers spoof other email addresses so instead of blocking the spammer, you're blocking a legitimate sender. For example, I have a number of spams that seem to come from my bank. If my bank really wanted to contact me, they could be blocked because I might have blocked the spoofed email which purported to come from them.
Is there any chance you blocked something from the (legitimate) sender, or marked it as spam?
It's just a thought, but it's worth checking your blocked list to make sure they aren't on there.
I know it sounds convoluted, but it's happened to me.
I don't know what email service you use, but you should have access to a list of senders that you (or they) have blocked. I'm afraid I can't say more as every email service is different. I hate to say it, but you may need to just poke around and see what you can find.I'll ck......though I'm not sure how to even do that
