I have three Windows 10 PCs, with Opera 60.0 update done today.
Opera and Windows are set, as far as I know possible, for UK
and for ISO 8601 date and time, YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss 24-hr.

In one PC, using Opera, new Date().toLocaleString() gives a British
date and 24-hour clock, :-) .  In the others, it gives a US date
and AM/PM clock, :-( .

How do I rectify that?

Also, Opera in each of them is set for English display, and I
see that I can change it to American.  But in each of them the
spelling checker is American & cannot be changed by me - a
one-option setting.  Presumably, I think, an English dictionary
needs to be installed for Opera (and, IIRC, Chrome) ... How?
