Unusual language display problem
A while back, I was trying to play a japanese game, but it wasn't working. It was recommended I use the japanese region setting on Windows 7 to display them. It wanted to reboot and I decided to try it another day, so I changed it back. Upon rebooting, the japanese characters were visible despite the region being set to English. At first, this wasn't a problem, though it didn't solve the issue with the game. There were unusual side effects, like the / sometimes replaced with a japanese symbol, but for the most part it was fine. But now a new problem has arisen. I downloaded a program called BlueGriffon, and I can't even use it because much of the english words are now japanese characters. And that's not the only area where this occurs.

I've tried to change it back so that the english words are, well, english words again. I don't understand how this mixup occurred, why some english words are now in japanese. So far nothing I tried has worked. What should I do to get the proper language display back?
