UI Language Help
« on: July 19, 2018, 12:46:18 am »
My client thought it would be a good idea to install the french version of the UI but I just can't figure it out, and french is my mother tongue.   Is there an easy way to display the UI in english?   

Thanks!

LOL - didn't you know that the French translation was ordered in China who had an Inuit doing it? And it was proof read by a Zulu.

I guess the best is to simply re-install the EA client.

My client packaged the EA installation.  I just can't ask them to repackage for me and manage two packages.    If I could, I would use my own license and installer but cannot do that on a locked down computer.

There is no GUI to change the language. It's something in EA's program folder responsible for it. So you're probably out of luck then.

Unfortunately the French and English versions are completely separate installation packages. You can't just switch the language, you would need to re-install the appropriate EA version.

Both the English and French installers are available from the Registered User Downloads area:
