    I am having a bit of an unusual issue.

    All of my achievements are showing up in Italian. I have looked as best I can for a way to change these back to English but I can not find a way to do this. I am fairly certain it is location based, being that I am currently in Italy but there has to be
    a way to change this back so that I can see what it is that I am unlocking....

    An example achievement:

    Onore dell'Avanguardia

    Raggiungi il grado 3 dell'Avanguardia.

    Which is Vanguard Honor

    Attain Vanguard rank 3.

    very annoying not being able to read this with out a translation.

    :)

    This is NONSENSE !! I am British, meaning that I read and write in English. Thus, my Xbox is set to English, though, I created my account while living in France (= French Account) which puts Adds + Top Menu in French (Bing, Accueil, Social, TV, Vidéo, Jeux,
    etc) as well as previously earned Achievements once I recover my Gamertag. Great ! Now half of them are in a language I barely understand !

    In addition to this, I am currently living in Belgium (still with my French Account !) and can't download any Game Add-Ons from the Xbox Marketplace, even if free : "This item is not available in your current location" pops up ... I already know your answer
    : "Just Create an English or Belgian Account !" No. Forget about it. I work in the Hotel Industry and am bound to travel, constantly going abroad. I have been an Xbox Live customer for 3 years now and have spent a considerable amount of time to reach my 29.000G
    ! Starting from scratch is simply not an option. I am sick and tired of these boundaries that have never been fixed in years, especially when they have no benefit for anyone. You provide a service, which I pay, and I have never been able to download anything
    from the Marketplace in 3 years ! This is not professional.

    Personally what I have experienced is that after I downloaded my profile into my Xbox again, any new achievement that I unlock will unlock in English, but when I delete my profile and I run first time setup and set up the Language and Locale to English -
    US, the achievements that I have recently unlocked will be changed back to Spanish, and every other achievement as well and once again, every new achievement I unlock after that will be in English. I've tried this a total of three times by now.

    I must say im in the same position. I currently live in spain. All my settings are in english yet my achievements for an inceasing number of games are all in spanish,.

    Its is highly frustrating to have to translate alot of them when most are words you wouldnt use in every day speech

    Please microsoft sort this. I can imagine you have alot to do. But this was not a problem one the 360 so why now on the "one".

  5. Hey there, Sprocket Doo! I'm sorry to see that your achievements are coming up in Spanish. This feature is based on the game developer and where a user is located for the Xbox One. This thread is a little old. If you need assistance with any other support
    issue, please post up a new thread detailing what you're running into and troubleshooting you've completed. This way our community can get you the individual support that works best on the forums. Achievements language :)

    Achievements in wrong language

    Try this. I had this issue once when I unlocked an achievement after setting the console language to Spanish by mistake. Redownload your Xbox profile. I think doing that should refresh the language of the achievements. Just got to make sure it's the language
    you actually speak.

    I experience somewhat simular. Not after location changes but right form the start. Not all games but certain games achievements are in French instead of english. Its annoying.

    Hey there Th3Whit3Rabbit,

    It's certainly possible to have your Xbox One console set to the region you're located in and change the text language to a different one. To do this, you'll make changes in Settings and Language & location. for more details, check out our support page

    Very sorry about this, Adridle and XI B4M 079 IX. Have you tried changing your console language settings to match your account language settings as Miss Portia mentioned? Due to the reasons mentioned above some content is localized based on region which
    may cause situations such as the one you are describing. My apologies for the inconvenience.
