I was always running the US version of Firefox but I used a corporate VPN and for some reason my Firefox was changed to the German version. This has happened to some other people here but after a rebot they return to the US version. Mine has however stayed on the German version.

Hi adics24,

You might want to take a look at this thread:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/752827

I think the main takeaway is that if you go to about:config and search for general.useragent.locale then the value should be set to en-US.

Hopefully this helps!

I've been working with Spanish and Portuguese OS and firefox gives this problem. After Matt's recommendation, I suggest to download Firefox again, and install it; gonna add the link here:

It is the English US version, and always that Firefox gives you the "new version and download" message, never press the "Ok" option, it is possible that your system is going to download your OS language, in your case, is going to download the German version. The next time this happens you better go to Mozilla website, look for the download firefox button, underneath it there is a "Systems & Languages" link, you click in there and is going to show a page that contains all the languages supported by Firefox.

Hope this works for you, take care!
