Qt Lingust 6.7.3 launches in German on English system

[Perdrix]

Subject says all (both MSVC2022_64bit and MSVC2019_64bit).

Odd

Hi,

Do you have any setting related to German on your system ?

[Perdrix]

Not that I am aware of - I have a Japanese language environment set up, but not a German one.

[SGaist]

Someone did a prank and changed your Qt Creator language ?

More seriously, did you check the settings of Qt Creator as described here ?

Since Qt Creator has a -language command line option, maybe Linguist has the same? In that case you should check the shortcut (maybe in the Windows menu?) if it has that option set. Or set it explicitly to English in that shortcut (if this command line option is available).

[Perdrix]

No such luck:
"Cannot open file -language: The system cannot find the file specified."
"Cannot open file English: The system cannot find the file specified."

It is fixed in 6.8.0 :)

Then you can close the bug.
