Uff, I solve problem. There was another reason:

Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages page - click Details
But first on Advanced page I need *uncheck* 'Turn off Advanced Text
facilities': it must be *not* checked,
then Apply, then on the main page click 'Language Bar' and enable it.

So, I was a hurry a little, its not a microsoft bug, sorry.

Anyway, thank you for help.
