Did you change the display language for the Microsoft service that interests you?
When we experimented with changing the display language used by the different services offered by Microsoft, we have noticed that things are not always logical. For example, when we changed the display language in Office Online tools like OneNote Online or Excel Online, the display language was changed only for the tool we used, only for that session. It is difficult to figure out the rules on how display languages are managed on a service by service basis. Another issue is that the number of supported display languages varies from service to service. Try the instructions from our tutorial, and tell us whether they worked for you.
