How to change the audio language on skyrim ? (with the game pass)

Cassiiiiooooo · Apr 18, 2025

Hello, I need help with mis skyrim audio

I downloaded the game with my computer in french and I wanted the game in english so I changed the language of my windows

This worked but only for the text/cc ?? The audio is still in French and I really want it to be in English !

I saw an answered question suggesting to

Open the Xbox App on PC, navigate to Skyrim page.

Select the Ellipsis to the far right of the Play option.

Select Manage > Files > Browse > "The Elder Scrolls V-Skyrim Special Edition (PC) (or the main file name for Skyrim) > Content > Scroll down until you see Skyrim_Default_es

Right click Skyrim_Default_es and rename to Skyrim_Default_es_main (do not edit or delete this beyond renaming)

Right click Skyrim_Default_en and rename to Skyrim_Default_es (do not edit or delete this beyond renaming)

Run the game, it should have English as the UI, English CC, and English audio.

These steps may break mods, and the language packs can always be reversed by renaming the files back to their original state (or reinstalling the game):

Spanish - Skyrim_Default_es

English - Skyrim_Default_en

But it didn't work for me, the audio is still in french.....

Maybe I can reinstall the game but won't it delete my save ?

Thank you so much !

Hi Cassiiiiooooo, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

Cassiiiiooooo, if you downloaded the game from Microsoft Store France the game will inevitably download in that language. You'll need to uninstall the game, then verify that both your account region, your PC's locale, and Microsoft Store locale are in an English-language region. Do not worry about the save or progress achieved within the game since this is associated with your account and profile and when you uninstall the game in the same way this data is preserved.

Please note that this is only a public forum, I will respond to you in a short period of time within the possible apologizing in advance for any delay in response. I am simply a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others, I am not an employee of Microsoft.
