Change UI language for MAX

I need to change the UI language for MAX (Measurement and Automation Explorer) and I found this discussion and this product suggestion.

I verified that the language can be changed modifying some parameters in Control Panel » Regional and Language Options.

The problem is that I'm in a situation where these settings can't be modified:

  • Standard and Formats can't be changed because they affect how some information is shown on video (date/time, currency, ...)
  • keyboard layout can't be modified because it matches the keyboard connected to the PC

I have Win 7 Enterprise, where I can change the language of the OS based on the user is logged into the machine, and this is good.

I think that MAX language should be set:

  • either by this OS language
  • or by a new setting inside the MAX itself

Dear vix,

The only way to change the language of MAX is to change the OS's regional settings.

Have a look to the following KB on the topic:

The only available way is to change the language in the Regional and Language Options

 

Under Regional Options, simply change the Standards and Formats setting from Japanese/German/French to English and click Apply.

 

The changes should take effect the next time you open Measurement & Automation Explorer, without having to restart your computer.

You can read in my first message that changing Regional Options is not an option in my case.

This is the reason why I asked for a different way to get the result.
