I use English Language (United States), United States - International keyboard (sometimes it appears as EN, and sometimes as EN-International on the right of the Taskbar) and Region The Netherlands.
I have a DVD with a German program/application.
I have installed this application on several computers before without any problem.
I recently purchase a new desktop with Win 10 Pro and configured language, keyboard and region as usual.
When I installed the German program/application the German character ä (the character a with umlaut - 2 dots) did not show but a 'black diamond with question mark inside' (cannot find it in the Character Map) appears. I have seen that 'sign' in some email providers that are not able to display 'foreign characters' or it has to with a setting 'somewhere'.
After installing the German program/application, it would not start properly. To solve it I replaced all the 'black diamond with question mark inside' with the correct character ä in the respective program files and it worked fine.
However, it is a mystery to me why my new desktop it not behaving like all the other computers that also run on Win 10 Pro and the same configuration.
