Text of download page is partially responsible for some confusion. For example, when I go to https://www.libreoffice.org/download/, it says LibreOffice Windows, version 3.5.4, Hungarian. So I may think that I'm going to download a Hungarian installer, It is not clear, that I will dowload a multi language installer. I think this fact should be emphasized. Windows installer automatically starts on the language of the regional settings of Windows. It is suitable for 99% of users. This is a WIndows feature, not ours. There is a related bug report in Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51038 The question is, if it is possible to start installer in English without changing regional settings to English. I don't have the answer yet. It is easy to force installer to start in any language, but English seems to be special. Interesting. :) Best regards, Andras -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
