Change language

• Mar 14, 2025 - 17:27

I've just updated to MS 4.5. I live in Germany but I always use English for all Apps including MuseScore. Now, after the updated it defaulted to German menus. I've had the same problem before an a change was easy.

Now, I've two problems
1. The window Setup/General has changed between 4.4.x and 4.5.x. The number of setup parameters are now extremely limited, see snapshot SetupScreen.jpg versus SetupScreenHandbook.jpg. Is this an intentional change and where can then all other parameters be modified?

  1. As you can see in screenshot SetupScreen.jpg, I've changed to English(GB) but there is no visible effect. I've restarted the computer a few times, but nothing changes (I've also used reset to factory settings ). Why?

EDIT, after having restarted the computer for the 5th time, the language eventually changed so now only point 1. remain.

  1. SetupScreenHandbook.jpg is from Musescore 3 handbook
  2. To change the language, simply close and open Musescore without restarting your computer.
  3. I haven't personally experienced such problems with resetting language settings, but it seems to me that migration of settings from version to version is the last thing that developers pay attention to. It is no coincidence that the instructions for resetting to factory settings are so popular here on the forum.
