foreign language

after downloading Spybots and setting it up on my computer, it opened in another language. Not cool. How am I supposed to use this accurately when I can't read the language in which it appears. Any solutions here? thanks

 

Hi, and welcome to Wilders!

Are you talking about Spybot Search and Destroy?

Or are you talking about one of Javacool's programs?

 

If you are talking about SPYBOT-Search & Destroy, then open the program in Advanced mode and click on the SETTINGS tab; choose Language and select the one you want.

Hope this helps

 

yes, it's Spybots I downloaded. Could you please tell me HOW to open it in the Advanced mode. All I do is 'click' on it a couple of times to 'open'. No idea there was another way to open this program. Thanks much for your help!!

 

And to Detox, it's Spybots Search & Destroy. Guess I should have answer that in my first reply. Bear with me please .. am new at this forum.

Thank you Pieter_Arntz
. With your direct assist I was able to call up the Spybots and, yes, change the language to English, though it took a bit of strange interpretation to figure out whatever language it was already in to step my way through to get to the section where I could actually CHOOSE my particular language of CHOICE! The directory within is still in another language, but heck, that's just one small hitch. Glad to be reading in English and am now running a scan. Thank you, THANK YOU!

 

My pleasure.
I'll move this thread to a more appropriate forum now, so it may be able to help someone else as well.

Regards,

Pieter

 

Ah ok; I just wanted to be sure I had the right program in mind first!

Looks like Pieter got you sorted! Glad it's working now ;-)

BTW - I thought that with Spybot S&D it prompts for language upon install, and you may have inadvertently hit the wrong one. However, I've just uninstalled and reinstalled here and did not find that to be the case. I don't understand why your directory went to another language... unless the empty folders or fact that I didn't clean registry between uninstall/reinstall kept it frmo prompting. Anyone know?
