set-locale-environment does not change the locale of Windows (and the
IMEs that Windows runs), only of Emacs.  The Windows locale can be
changed in the Regional Settings control panel (the title of the
relevant option is something like "Language for non-Unicode Programs").

Please report this as a bug.  When the support for Windows IMEs was
added, it was displaying the Window, but it may need work to work
properly on all versions of Windows, or something may have changed in
Emacs since then.
