605980 - Updating to Firefox 3.6.11 changes language to English

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Christian]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11

After automatically updating Firefox to version 3.6.11 the language of the UI (menus, preferences, even: add-ons like NoScript) changed to English. There is apparently no possibility to rechange the language in "Options..", as I only found a language option for website content displaying. Do I have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox to get my old language (German) back?

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Updating to Firefox 3.6.11
2. Restarting Firefox for final updating
Actual Results:  
The language of the UI changed to English.

Expected Results:  
Remain the former language.

Do you use the Third-Party Personal security Inspector (PSI) beta Software ?

Comment 2

Yes. So PSI updated Firefox and not the automatic update?

I now reinstalled the German version and it works fine now. As it's not a bug of Firefox, I marked it as INVALID! Thank you very much for your help Matthias Versen!

The PSI2.0 beta updates a few applications as auto-update.
This update is an external update and not a Firefox internal one and the PSI updates always to english at the moment. Secunia knows about the problem.
You can disable the auto-update for Firefox in the PSI and use the internal update that is working better.
