Group policy for location, date format, keyboard layout etc.

[JordanT91]

Hi all. I'm having trouble getting the location, date format, keyboard layout etc. set to UK. Nothing I've tried seems to work!

 

Settings I've tried:

 

CC > Policies > Administrative Templates > Control Panel/Regional and Language Options > Restrict the UI language Windows uses for all logged users (English)

CC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\Nls\CodePage\OEMCP set to 850

CC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\Nls\Language\default set to 0809

CC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\Nls\Language\InstallLanguage set to 0809

CC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\Nls\Locale\(default) set to 0809

 

UC > Policies > Administrative Templates > Control Panel/Regional and Language Options > Restrict the UI language Windows should use for the selected user (English)

UC > Preferences > Control Panel > Regional Options > Regional Options > End User Default Locale > User locale set to United Kingdom, number/currency/time/date all set the way I want though I can't change Location from United States as it is greyed out.

UC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKCU\keyboardlayout\Preload\1 set to 0809

UC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKCU\control panel\international\user profile\languages set to en-GB

UC > Preferences > Windows Settings > Registry > HKCU\control panel\international\geo\nation set to 242

 

Is there anything else I can try?

I've had this on our Windows 10. Someone else suggested if you have upgraded a machine rather than fresh install then it sets it to US

Nevermind, I've sussed it. On this policy: UC > Preferences > Control Panel > Regional Options > Regional Options > End User Default Locale > User locale set to United Kingdom - I had to press F5 to change United Kingdom from a red dashed underline to a green solid underline. Apparently this enforces it. I applied the change it it works now!
