Game Language Changed

Today game language changed from English to something else. I shut Slitherine PC Gold down and opened Steam PC Gold and got same screen. Closed down and ran virus check on computer; tracking cookies only thing found. Uninstalled both Slitherine and Steam versions, downloaded and installed Slitherine version and got same thing. Any idea what this is and how to fix it? Thanks.

Log File shows many duplicate string ID in the strings file, pattern repeats. Is this the issue?

Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_TT_PASSWORD
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_BUTTON_CLOSE
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_TITLE_LOAD_GAME
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_BUTTON_DELETE
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_BUTTON_EDIT
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_LABEL_NAME
Duplicate string ID in the strings file: IDS_LABEL_SEAAIRRAIL_TRANSPORT

maybe a miss click?, as all you have to do is click on one of the items shown and it will change the language to something else, looks like Russian tbh

i don't have the gold version so can't advise on which item to click to alter it back, but i know it's a button or flag etc

hopefully one of the site mods will give the correct one as atm i'm lost on which does it, as i'm mine it's a flag on the second screen

LOL! Thanks Zakblood. Mis-click it was. Where is that embarrassed emoji when I need it?

don't worry we have all done it, i found out how to alter the keyboard layout one day by leaning on it, so remapped some keys and had no idea i'd done it, or how to change it back either, but sorted it in the end, well someone else did for me :mrgreen:
