I have Windows XP and somewhere along the road some time ago, I imagine, I
must have done something to alter some setting, but I can't for the life of
me find it. I only have this problem on a few programs. Most
specifically...WordPad. When I try to print preview or save; the dialogue
boxes that pop up are in German. It doesn't do it on other programs such as
notepad or Microsoft works word processor. Does anyone know how to fix
this???
 
Hey bones,

Try this; Go to control panel and double click Regional and Languages. On
the Regional tab, see if it is set to your language.

HTH, JAX
 
Thanks, yes, it is set to English and 99% of everything I use works right,
but when you go to close or save a WordPad document it always pops up that
"do you want to save changes" dialogue box and instead of that it now says
"Anderungen in document speichern" and if I try to do a print preview, all
the options at the top are in German as well. Any other ideas???
