Language change back to English

Hi Limei...

You've posted your quesiton as a blog post. It might be better answered as a new thread on the Creo message board. The link to that board is here:

In regards to your question, the easiest thing to do is probably to completely uninstall Creo Elements Pro from your Windows Control Panel. Re-install the application with English selected as the language. In a pinch, you may be able to go to the installation directory where Creo Elements Pro was installed. Inside the "bin" subdirectory you'll see a file called ptcsetup.bat. Double clicking this file will re-run the PTC Setup Utility. Language support is at the bottom of this screen. You may be able to swap back to English by re-running this utility but I'd try the uninstall first.

Good luck!

Limei,

to switch Creo Elements/Pro in English, add ENV=PRO_LANG=english into psf file located in ProE\bin directory. Standard name is proe1.psf.

Hi Brian:

Thank you for quick responce. it help me. I re-installed Creo and application back to English.

Limei

HI Martin:

Thank you very much to show me another way to solve the problem. It is clear and easy.

Limei

Your solution worked perfectly for me! Way faster than reinstalling all, thanks a lot!!

with creo 2 this is slightly different

to switch Creo Parametric in English, add ENV=PRO_LANG=english into .psf file located in Parametric\bin directory. Standard name is parametric.psf.

Default directory: C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 2.0\Parametric\bin

Do the same as with the elements instructions above.

3 Years later this fix still works, nice work.

Perfect! Thank you very much.

It works on Creo 3.0 and if you leave the original file and the new edited file, you can choose which language use at the starter of program  

Hllo Mario,

Please could you tell me how you did that? I cant locate the directory. Thanks in advance.

C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M090\Parametric\bin

Open the file whit notebloc, add the instruction ENV=PRO_LANG=english at the final of the text and save the file, is all
