Hi there,
I'm facing an issue with Anno 1800 where all numbers > 1000 are shown as "1?000" when the game is set in French. If I set the game in English it shows "1,000" or German "1.000", but the French option shows with a question mark instead of a non-breaking space "1 000". I've tried verifying the game but there's no issue detected. It's probably a font issue or a config file that is messed up but I don't know where to look to fix it.
Do you know how to fix this issue ?
Kind regards,
Nic
Hey @nicoouf,
Sorry to hear that you encounter this when using the French language.
Would it be possible to share with us a screenshot as an example?
Many thanks
Thanks for jumping in and sending across these screenshots, @nequiem - that's really helpful! I've gone ahead and reported this to our team to investigate further.
I hope you've otherwise been enjoying the 1800s 
And welcome to the forums!
@UbiK_777
Thanks for letting us know. I've passed your report on to the team and this issue is under active investigation.
@Nequiem
Glad to hear you're a long time fan of the series! We appreciate the feedback, If you haven't already done so I'd recommend putting this feedback in a separate thread and sharing that here as well. Thanks!
@gilestiel Hi there!
Thank you for sharing this workaround, and that you've found this happens when switching languages.
We've forwarded on this information to the team to aid in their investigation. We'll be sure to update players with more news once it becomes available.
Thanks again! 
Hey @Nequiem
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you, and sorry to hear that the issue still persists.
We do not have any updates on this issue I'm afraid :(, But have you tried the workaround Gilestiel 1 provided?
Thanks for letting us know the workaround helped you @Nequiem !
Should we hear anything further on this issue in future, we'll let you guys know here.
Thank you!
Hey @Im_Saul_Goodman
As this is also in relation to the French version of Windows, it's been a little trickier for the team to fix, apologies for the delay.
Should we have more information available, we will share it here.
Sorry for the inconvenience caused!
Heya, @bdoux33 , thanks for sharing your report of this! My apologies for the misunderstanding. We've not specifically been informed that it is to do with French versions of Windows, or with Windows set to French - rather, the information we have is simply that the issue is with interactions with Windows itself. My own inference is that it's to do with regional administration settings, after a player had shared a workaround with us.
'In Windows go to Settings / Time and language / Language and region / Administration language settings
In the 'Formats' tab then the 'Additional parameters' button, enter (or reset) the space in 'Symbol for grouping figures'
If that doesn't work, do the manipulation with a random symbol, start the game (you will see your symbol instead of '?' If you have chosen something else) then quit and enter the space again and restart the game.'
Can you give that workaround a go for me as well, and let me know if you see any change in-game? If not, I'll be able to feed that back to our team to help with our investigation. Let me know if I can clarify those steps at all!
Heya @Eyolfur , welcome to our forums, and thanks for sharing your report of this issue! I appreciate it I've not had a look at exactly what's causing the issue myself, but what you've said sounds accurate to me. Fortunately, we're working with Microsoft for an eventual fix, but we don't have any ETA on that. My apologies for the issue in the meantime.
