What happened on this Friday?
In the morning, I sat in my office, pounded on my keyboard, and went about my business as usual. After scanning the news, I reflected on the topic of my today's article. As I struck the keyboard again, the inputs on the screen of my desktop looked like they had just undergone a plastic surgery, extremely weird. When I realized that there should be something wrong in the language setting after typing repeatedly, I searched for the solution in the way shown below.
1. Typed different letters in both local files and online ones, pointed out that the inputs were definitely another language which I did not add in my computer.
2. Opened "Settings" in the Start Menu, and then chose "Time and Language"
3. Checked all the settings that might cause the problem and made sure that there were only two languages I added - English and Simplified Chinese. The displayed language on my screen was no doubt another one.
4. Did anyone else run into such a problem like me, I wondered? Since I presented my question online, numerous comments came to me. This was beyond doubt a bug.
5. I deleted one language of the two, then everything went back to normal right away. As both languages are indispensable, I downloaded a free Input Method Editor instead of using the default one on my computer, because it might go mad unpredictably. Meanwhile, I chose myself a writing assistant - SpinnerChief which supports several languages.
After that, my computer seemed as lovable as a little kid, who had just recovered from an illness. I am not sure if this is related to the Friday Effect. Anyhow, it is a practical experience to share with you:)
