Change Regional Settings

Modified on Wed, 11 Jun at 2:13 PM

It may be useful to change regional settings from time to time, especially when trying to resolve an issue.

Some countries us comma (,) rather than decimal place (.) to separate units which can sometimes cause issues in maths equations.

To change the settings on your computer, press the start key and type in Region,a nd then navigate to Language & Region


Scroll down and click on 'Adminstrative Language Settings'



Then click 'Additional Settings'

And change the Decimal Symbol to . instead of , and click Apply
