Immer wenn ich den Firefox Browser aktualisiere über Download stellt er mir englisch ein als Sprache. Ich möchte die Version auf deutsch haben, da ich sonst über google alles nur auf englisch bekomme.

How do I set German as the preferred language?

Whenever I update the Firefox browser via download he sets me english as language. I would like to have the version in German, because otherwise I get about google only in English.


Hi, this gives a good over view but is mixed and will need to take Firefox info and install language packs and set as default : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/deutsch-de-language-pack/ and dictionary https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/german-dictionary/ and set up as per below. https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-lang-priorities

The best way is to uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 59.0.2 with a Full Version Installer

Find German on above Page and Install.

Note : you should start a whole new Profile for the above to take effect

transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy english files to avoid carrying over the problem. Never work with original files.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

You can check the order of the installed languages.

  • Options/Preferences -> General -> Languages

If the Firefox user interface (toolbars) is in the wrong language or if you want to change the current language then download Firefox in the language of your choice.
