How do I change the language in Firefox Developer Edition?


I can't seem to change the language of the browser. There's a language section in the settings but the language won't change when I choose another language.

I've tried to restart the browser and also restart my computer but the language still hasn't changed.


Solution

  • The language on Firefox is determined by the language you download the installer for. So, if you download it from the mozilla en-us url, you will get the english firefox. To download the right Firefox in your language go to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release to pick the language and download the right Firefox.

    If you have downloaded Firefox, you can go to about:config in your firefox url bar and set these to true:

    intl.multilingual.enabled

    intl.multilingual.downloadEnabled

    Warning: I'm not sure if this can make the UI crash, proceed at your own risk!
