look for the Mozilla Firefox folder

right click on the folder and delete it.

Restart your computer.

Download and install Mozilla Firefox from the beginning. I hope you wanted the English version.

Everything should be where you can then understand it.

You are posting to a 2 year old thread.

I assume you noticed that with your, "come on!" comment.

Since then, Firefox has been updated a number of times. I am using version 3.0.7. Which version are you using?

In version 3.0.7 the language option has moved. With Firefox open, goto Tools > Options, and click the "Content" tab.

There you will find a section called Languages, and a button for "Choose". Click that.

In the new window, where it says, "Select a language to add...", click the down arrow. Scroll down to the language you want to add. Click Add.

Move the language you have just added to the top of the 'order of preference' list in that window, or wherever you want it placed.

Perhaps you could have found this yourself with a little delving and looking around.

No, that's for changing the web pages language.

These steps you mentionned don't change the language of Firefox menus and titles. They change the display language of the web pages.

(NT) Why not uninstall and download the right version?

Firefox 3 Language setting - sure it's not Google?

I came across this thread while trying to correct my own firefox 3 langauge problems. I got stuck with Arabic, based on location, despite dowloading en-gb. Changing the settings within firefox made no difference and the firefox menu bar WAS in English. I got the answer on another site and thought I'd post it here - my settings problem was in Google, the default display page, not Firefox. To correct it, open firefox and when the google page comes up, click on the 'google' shortcut - the only thing I had in English - change your settings, save your preferences, and voila, it displays correctly. Hope this helps someone else.
