Inernational Dialing Code (Sp2)

Topic

There are a number of different operators here providing international dialing. Each uses a different code. Seems Windows automatically uses ‘001’ . Is it possible to change this?

OK for step 1-4. Problem is that box ‘Use this carrier code to make international calls’ is greyed out. I have to change to ‘Country/region: United States’ to get this option. I don’t think it can be accessed by other countries. Do I have to move to the US?

Oops, I didn’t notice that. You could experiment with setting Country/region to United States, I don’t know if this has unexpected side effects.
