- Take a backup of the file
- Open the file with administrative permissions and modify it as follows:
- Create the setting InterfaceLanguage=<language>
- Set the language to any of the supported languages
Example:
[Settings 7]
InterfaceLanguage=German
[...]
Note: Make sure the setting is added after [Settings 7] but before any other section marker [... ]

Option 2 (Client side)
- Open the QlikView AccessPoint

Users can change the interface language in the URL directly.
