Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product. Learn more about how Cisco is using Inclusive Language.

    Introduction

    This document describes how to change the language of Secure Endpoint GUI.

    Prerequisites

    Requirements

    Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of these topics:

    • Cisco Secure Endpoint
    • Windows OS

    Components Used

    • Secure Endpoint 8.0.1
    • Windows 10 21H2
    • Windows 11 21H2

    The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

    Configure

    With the introduction of Secure Client (Secure Endpoint 8​) there is the possibility to display GUI in one of the listed languages (the list is subject to change, please verify Release Notes for supported languages):

    • Czech
    • Dutch
    • French
    • German
    • Hungarian
    • Italian
    • Japanese
    • Korean
    • Polish
    • Portuguese
    • Russian
    • Simplified Chinese
    • Spanish
    • Traditional Chinese

    Check current system locale

    Check System Locale in Windows. Open Run application and execute msinfo32 to open System Information:

    Run window with msinfo32 typed in the form. Below OK, Cancel and Browse... buttons.

    Within System Information window, you can see System Locale under System Summary > Locale:

    Window of System Information where on System Summary you can find the Locale set as United States

    Secure Endpoint UI is displayed in English:

    Cisco Secure Client GUI in English

    Configure system locale

    To change Secure Endpoint language, we need to change System Locale. The same procedure applies to Windows 10 and Windows 11.

    It can be done in Control Panel > Region > Administrative > Change system locale

    Three windows, Control Panel and Region selected. Once opened, Admin tab to Change system locale button. Current set English.

    Caution: Change of System Locale requires a reboot.

    Verify the GUI language

    This example shows what happens after the change of System Locale to German:

    Region settings window, German set

    After the reboot we verify Locale in System Information:

    Msinfo32 window with locale set to German

    We also check GUI of Secure Endpoint:

    Cisco Secure Client GUI in German

    Secure Client GUI about section in German

    As you can see now GUI is displayed in German.

    Troubleshoot

    It is important to understand that Secure Endpoint UI language is set based on System Locale. The settings in Language or Region in new Windows Settings do not change the language of Secure Endpoint UI:

    Windows 11:

    Three windows, Windows settings, msinfo32 and Cisco Secure Client in German

    Windows 10:

    Regional settings in built-in metro app

    Three windows, Settings msinfo32 and Cisco Secure Client GUI
