Which client are you using ,share or explorer?
Share locale is automatically chosen according to the language settings of browser.
Explorer use the locale you choose from login page.
After that The current locale is setted into current thread. If no Locale is specified the repository will use the default Locale.

So I guess your default locale is fr ,and you haven't change your locale to english correctly.

thanks but I did change the language from firefox preferences, and I logged into repository in english, but it doesn't work it seems like using default locale no matter what 😕
ps: I'm using both share and repository and set both in english(just in case)

Have you tested whether it works when you select english language in explorer login page instead of changing language in firefox

I did, in fact (by repository I meant explorer), I chose english but didn't work the probleme is that the default locale is not changed by logging nor changing firefox preferences
