How to Get English (UK) Working on Windows 10 When It Breaks Settings Shortcuts

For a long while now, I've been putting up with English (US) as my Windows 10 display language on one of my laptops because every time I changed it to English (UK), the Settings search would break - Start Menu Settings results would be broken and the Settings app would keep saying that it was preparing results.

But today I finally managed to fix it. What you have to do (or what I did, at least) is change the display language to your preference (and apply it to all new user accounts and the Welcome screen), uninstall the last installed Windows system update, then restart.

Fix: OneDrive Doesn't Sync Office Files

Yesterday I had a very annoying issue where the OneDrive client on my laptop would not upload or download files. Later on I discovered that the issue was isolated to Office files (i.e. .docx, .xlsx, .pptx, etc.)

This morning I found the fix: right-click the OneDrive icon in the notification area and click Settings. In Settings, go to the Office tab and uncheck "Use Office to sync Office files".
