Hello, I've just installed the Audacity program 2.1.0 on my windows 7 and chose English as the language
of my choice. However, as I opened the program it is all in German (I live in Germany but am an English speaker).
Can someone advice as to how I can change this to english?
Thank you!

Re: Changing the installation language
The selected language in the installer changes the language for the installer only and not the language for Audacity.
Audacity always defaults to the system language of the computer.
To change the Audacity language, see: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/languages.html
