I keep getting sent to the French website (fr-fr)

I keep getting forced to the French website when browsing minecraft.net (fr-fr) I am (en-us). I even go out of my way to type (en-us) so I'm sent to the right place, yet I keep getting snapped back to the French website. I can't read French. Please make this stop.

I use the latest chrome version with a few extensions. Disabling these extensions did not fix the issue however.

Instead of it being forced based on local time zone or locational services which may not be available to the website, it should just use what is typed. I don't know why I am getting forced to the French site simply trying to access my profile, or going to a different page.

Hello,

Have you tried to change the language set in the language picker at the bottom left corner of the footer? In your case it will likely say "Francais"

You should be able to change that language picker to your desired language.

Hello, sorry for the late reply.

Tester71's response did work, however I was not being offered "English" as an option via that menu. Clicking "Francais" is what directed me to English. I guess it wasn't getting translated correctly? That does translate to "English" yes, but I can't read French and only know this because I stuck everything into google translate.

Thank you [Helper] markderickson, I did go into google chromes settings and remove French as a language option as well. Don't know why that was even there.

 

Seems like the problem is fixed now.

If it returns in the future I will make sure both steps above are covered before making another report. Thank you both.

Thanks for the response – I'm glad the issue has been resolved for you. 🙂
