Change language from German to English
Hi,
I have downloaded and installed Solidworks, it is not activated yet. During the installation process I choose German as the language. Because most of the Solidworks forums are in English, I would like to change Solidworks to the English version. I assume I have to reinstall it.
Since I haven't activated it yet, can i just deinstall the German version and install it again or do I have to activate it first and then "return" my license to DS, and reactivate it?
Thanks
Klaus

You don't have to reinstall the software.
Since you installed the software in a "foreign" language (for me English, as opposed to American, is already a foreign language). here's what you have to do in English - you'll have to use the equivalent in German (that I assume you can translate better than me):
Go to Tools > Options and under the System Options tab choose General (the default).
Then check the following unchecked boxes:
Use English Language Menus
Use English Language Features & File Names
You will have to exit and restart SolidWorks for the change to take effect.
Best of luck.
