Problem with date format

I am using my computer (Windows 11) to access my icloud email. However, the date format on emails is coming up as the USA version (month/day/year) rather than the UK version (day/month/year). How can I change this? I don't have the same problem when using my iphone or ipad. I want to use the computer for writing longer emails, and for attachments.

How do you change the date format in Mail on iCloud.com? I can't find a way to change the date format (or language / region preferences) in iCloud settings that will affect Mail. And there is no community solution or KB article anywhere I can find. You can change the iCloud.com Calendar app date format preference but it doesn't impact Mail and neither does AppleID.apple.com settings. It remains the incorrect and rarified US date format. (Did you know it's only used primarily by 4.6% of the world's population?) Mail on iCloud.com defaults to US date format with no clear way to change it. Does anyone have an idea?

How can I change the date format in iCloud to dd/mm/yyyy? I operate 3 Apple devices viz. Mac, iPad & iPhone and the date format in these devices are all set to dd/mm/yyyy, including the email client on these devices. However when viewing emails in iCloud (https://www.icloud.com) the format is mm/dd/yyyy. How can I change the date format in iCloud to dd/mm/yyyy? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

reset date format apple mail When I log into icloud I have noticed that the update has defaulted the date format in mail to month/ day/ year rather than day/ month/ year which as I non-American I am used to. I can not figure out how to alter this - not been a problem before no issues on any of my Apple devices just when I log into icloud remotely. Any solutions - old solutions on the web don't work because many of the features / buttons etc no longer exist.
