The date above is in USA format

Language Packs do not include English UK and using the legacy settings on the environment I can confirm English UK is selected.

How do I change this?

    Hi @Splotchy0541 ,

    1. Contact Microsoft Support for assistance, as English (UK) may not be available due to specific configurations or limitations.
    2. Check and ensure that the Microsoft 365 or Azure AD tenant settings also use the UK region.
    3. Verify licensing to ensure it supports the desired language.
    4. Understand that language availability may vary for different Power Platform services.
    5. Stay informed about updates and announcements from Microsoft regarding language support.

    If this solution resolves your issue, please consider marking it as accepted. âś…

    Warm regards,
    Muhammad Ali

    English of any kind isn't listed in my language list.

    All others settings including 365 account and legacy settings is already set to UK

    Hi @Splotchy0541 ,
    To change the environment language to English (UK) and ensure date formats appear correctly, follow these steps:

    1. Environment Settings: Double-check the environment's regional settings to make sure English (UK) is selected.

    2. User Settings: Each user should also check their personal settings to ensure they have English (UK) set as their preferred language and region.

    3. App Settings: Within the Power Apps settings, ensure that the app is also set to use English (UK) where applicable.

    4. Canvas App Locale: For canvas apps, use the Text function to format dates, specifying the locale directly, like so: Text(Now(), "dd/mm/yyyy", "en-gb").

    5. Model-Driven Apps: For model-driven apps, check the settings on the individual user level as well as the organization settings in the Power Platform Admin center.

    6. Power Platform Admin Center: Access the Admin center to review and manage the settings for the default language and region for your organization.

    If after these checks the issue persists, consider reaching out to Microsoft Support for further assistance as this might be an issue that requires intervention from their end.
    Best Regards,

    Hi @Splotchy0541 ,

    To change the environment language to English (UK) in the Power Platform admin center, follow these steps:

    1. Go to the Power Platform admin center.
    2. Select the environment you want to modify.
    3. Navigate to the 'Settings' area.
    4. Look for the language options or regional settings.
    5. If English (UK) is not listed directly, you may need to select a general English option and then customize the regional settings to the UK format.

    Note: If English (UK) is not available in the language packs, using the legacy settings to set regional preferences might be the only workaround. Ensure the environment settings align with the desired language and regional formats.

    If this doesn't resolve your issue, it's possible that English (UK) may not be fully supported for your specific application or tenant, and you might need to reach out to Microsoft support for further assistance.

    If this solution resolves your issue, please consider marking it as accepted. âś…

    Warm regards,
