Microsoft Edge Browser Now Available in More Languages 

 

Microsoft has recently enabled multi-language support in its Chromium-based browser, and testers on Windows 10 and macOS can now change the language from the settings screen.

The latest Canary and Dev builds released by Microsoft on both platforms come with such capabilities, and the official changelog confirms this is indeed possible in Microsoft Edge:

“Added more languages that you can display Microsoft Edge in.”

I tested this new feature in the Dev build of Microsoft Edge and it indeed works like a charm for specific languages, including French and Spanish. Support for more languages, such as Italian and others, is expected in the coming updates.

To change the language in Microsoft Edge, you must first update to the latest version of the browser, regardless of the channel that you’re currently using. Once you do this, in the browser follow this path:

Microsoft Edge > Menu > Settings > Languages > Add languages

After you install the language that you want to use Microsoft Edge in, click the three-dot menu next to it and hit the option that reads “Display Microsoft Edge in this language.”More languages coming soonA reboot of the browser will be required to see the new language activated in the browser.

Microsoft Edge is a work-in-progress, so every new update brings more refinements, which means that the existing language support is likely to be improved as well in the coming releases.

Meanwhile, if something doesn’t work exactly as expected, such as your language coming with any mistakes, you can send feedback to the company using the built-in feature specifically implemented with this purpose.

No ETA is available on the beta and stable builds of Microsoft Edge, but if the testing advances as planned, there’s a chance the browser goes live for production devices later this year. Meanwhile, anyone on Windows and on macOS can give it a try by downloading the preview versions.
