WTF?
Now your entire computer is in Japanese and you have no idea how to fix it.
Here's how to change your language settings back to English Even if you can't read enough Japanese to navigate your way around.
Step 1: Get into your PC If your computer's language has been changed, you may not even be able to log in to your account if you're using the wrong keyboard.
On the log-in screen, if you have multiple keyboards enabled, you'll see a small group of letters next to the power button icon in the lower left corner.
Click this group of letters to see a list of keyboards; choose the keyboard you want to use to type in your password and log in to your account.
Step 2: Find the language settings
There are a few different ways to get to the language settings, but the easiest way is to open up the Charms bar and hit the gear-shaped Settings icon at the bottom of the list.

That link in the lower right corner takes you to PC settings. From the Settings sidebar, click the link at the very bottom (under the status icons) to go to the PC settings screen. The seventh item on the list is the Region and language tab. On the PC settings screen, click Time and language (the seventh item in the list) and then click Region and language (the second item in the list).
