How to set the first of the week to be Sunday in the Calendar that is displayed in the System Tray of Windows Vista Home Basic. I tried setting the first day of the week to Sunday in Windows Calendar (thinking that it might work) and yet still it displays the first day of the week to be Monday. Moreover there are not settings available on the System Tray Calendar

Using regedit, browse to HKCU\Control Panel\International, look for the iFirstDayOfWeek key and set the value to 0 for Monday, 1 for Tuesday, 2 for Wednesday, etc ...

I ran into this exact issue when getting issued a UK-regioned desktop.

You need to go to Control Panel -> Regional and Language Settings and pick a region that starts the week on Sunday, like US.

To add to this: In Windows 7 this is an independent setting and can be found on the "Date" tab when customizing the locale. – Joey Oct 27 '09 at 7:40

Just go Regional and Language Settings, there is a combo box: "First day of week:", and you know what to do next...

Hard to understand why this was downvoted. It's a reasonable solution, though maybe not the best one. – Isaac Rabinovitch Nov 23 '12 at 3:56
