    Change game language in Xbox App for Windows 10


    Hello,

    i'd like to change the language of all games i installed via the Xbox App for Windows 10 to english. My native language is german, but i prefer to play games in english because the german localization can be a bit iffy sometimes.

    How can i change my game language WITHOUT changing the global system language? Any advice would be appreciated.

    :)

    Change language Microsoft Mahjong

    Microsoft Apps found on the Store may have their own language settings in the app's game settings, or it may read directly from your language settings in Windows 10.

    I actually had Mahjong installed, and I could quite find the settings myself. In this case, you'll likely need to change the system language setting in Windows.

    Note: This will change the ENTIRE Windows interface to the new language. Changing will require a reboot.

    Give this article a read for a step-by-step: http://www.windowscentral.com/how-properly-change-system-default-language-windows-10

    Hopefully it helps!

    How i change the language on Xbox APP

    Hey, I found a similar thread with the solution. I'll quote it an provide it as a reference for you, "Xbox App uses the language that you have assigned
    as your preferred Windows language. In order to change that, search for "Language" (type this in your Windows language if you're not using the English version) in the search bar on Windows and then the language panel will come up. (It's the same panel you
    use if you want to change keyboard preferences) The language which is in the top, is the one that the Store and all it's apps use. Just get the language you prefer in the first spot and the Store along with all the apps and your keyboard will use this as preferred
    language." That was from user snikefriend.

    settings on Xbox Beta

    Hello alinfilip1,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning how to change the language of the Xbox (beta) App. The Xbox (beta) App and the Xbox Console Companion App both detect the language that your computer is set
    up to, and display the text based on that. You will need to
    change the language of your computer
    in order to change the language of the application. We hope this information helps!

    How to change a Window Store game's language

    I think the language in Windows 10 Store games and apps depends on region setting, not system language.
    Nope. The region setting only changes the type of currency, I've already tried it, it does not change the language of the game, neither the system language does. I've already uninstalled the game, changed my system language to english, reinstalled the game,
    and it did nothing, the game installed in spanish either way. I'm suspicious it has to do with your Xbox account region, I'm going to try that next.

    Change game language in Xbox App for Windows 10

    Hi Vallasin,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is change the global system language. You can always go to
    Xbox ideas and post an idea for a different way to select languages.

    Thanks,

    Brad
    Hi Brad,

    When you say "global system language", that's the OS language/region settings ? So as long as Windows 10 is in english, Xbox app will be in english and all the games installed will be in english ? Is that correct ?

    I have the same question as Vallasin. My system is in english, I haven't installed the Xbox app yet.

    Thanks!

    I have installed Wolfenstein 2 and changed the whole Systemsettings from german to english but the game is still in german...so no it doesnt work, at least nocjht for this one. Too bad, i really hoped, that i could try this game, but this makes the XBox
    Game Pass less attractive to me.
