This guide will show you how to change the currency format used for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11 .
Your regional format settings affect how date/time, number, and currency data types are displayed when you apply formatting options. Windows supports many languages, along with currency and date/time formats for the countries/regions that use those languages.
