Changing the interface language after installation

Once QlikView is installed, you can change the interface language from within the program at any time.

Do the following:

  1. In the menu bar at the top of the screen, click on the Settings drop-down.
  2. Click User Preferences.... A dialogue box will open.
  3. On the General tab, click the Change User Interface Language... button.

    Another dialogue box will open.

  4. Choose your desired language, and click OK.
  5. Restart QlikView to make the changes effective.  

A change in the interface language affects how the language of the program and the online help are displayed.

You can change the language settings also by modifying the Settings.ini file, found in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\QlikTech\QlikView. Edit the setting InterfaceLanguage and set it to a supported language.

To learn more about QlikView Desktop interface settings, see User Preferences: General.

Changing AJAX and WebView language settings

QlikView WebView uses the language set in User Preferences.... AJAX uses English as the default for both AccessPoint and QlikView documents. You can change the language settings in QlikView AccessPoint to another language. See: Setting your preferred language in AccessPoint for details.
