I tried downloading the online installer for Windows but for some reason the language of the installer is in russian.
Why is that and where can I change it?

@Petazz From where did you download the installer?
What language is configured on your machine?
What Windows version is it?@jsulm This is the online installer I downloaded from here: https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer-oss
My Windows has a display language of English (United Kingdom) and Preferred languages include Finnish and Russian.
Could it be picking it up from the preferred languages but it sorts the list wrong way around?
EDIT:
Ok answering to myself. It does seem that's somewhat what happened. As soon as I removed Russian from my preferred languages it went to English.The other option is that the installer tries to use the preferred languages and doesn't support Finnish so it tried the next one which was Russian.
This is the only installer I've ever seen with this kind of behaviour. I guess most installers don't support other languages then (or at least not Finnish or Russian)
