Hi

 

After update my PAD app language is changed from english to system language and i dont find any settings for that. Is there way to force app back to English without touching system settings?

 

Thanks!

    I am having the same question hand have found that, according to this link , "The language used in the Power Automate Desktop is the display language selected on your Windows OS".

     

    As most of the tutorials are thought en English, I would like to have PAD in English, but if I change my language at the operating system level, the rest of my windows applications will also be in English and I would like to keep them in my native languaje.

     

    So is there any way to change the language only for PAD ?

    Or is there any possibility to have this option added for future updates ?

     

    Thanks, Victor.

    hi

    I have a Japanese OS and my PAD is displayed in English.
    Try switching the preferred language to English in Windows settings and reboot.

    Thank you @ZS440 , I did as you mentioned and now I have PAD in English. First I had to install the English language and reboot, but is working. I also had to customize the default keyboard input language to my native language to avoid problems with windowspassword, as english mapping is different. I was also worried that all my applications were going to default to English, but it looks it didn't.

     

    Anyway, I was expecting something simpler to switch PAD to English. For instance, in Teams is as simple as going to the Teams configuration and just changing the "App Language" setting. After that you restart teams, and that is all you need to do (in Teams).

     

    Thanks, Victor.

    I'm glad to hear that it worked for now.
    How about suggesting the following URL for language switching in an application?
