Description EasyGoingPat 2021-03-04 09:45:11 UTC
Description:
If I open Libre Office parent application and change the language from En-US to En-UK, the change is remembered in Libre Office. If I create a new Writer document from the parent application, the language is correctly set to En-UK.

If I right-click a folder in Windows Explorer and create a Writer document, the language is always En-US.

If, in Writer, I change the default language to En-UK, click 'Apply' then 'Okay', the change is not remembered. The next document I create from Explorer reverts to En-US.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click in Explorer to create new Writer document.
2. Double-click the new document to open it.
3. Open menu Tools | Options | Language Settings | Languages
4. Change Default Languages for Documents from English (USA) to English (UK).
5. Click 'Apply' and then 'Okay'.
6. Close the document, saving if prompted.
7. Right-click in Explorer to create another new Writer document.
8. Double-click the new document to open it.
9. Open menu Tools | Options | Language Settings | Languages

Actual Results:
Default Languages for Documents has reverted to English (USA).

Expected Results:
Default Languages for Documents should now be English (UK).


Reproducible: Always
