Answer 1 :
There is a way by replacing some libraries and some programs, but It's something you don't want to get into, believe me. The best option is to reinstall the OS. It is possible to keep installed programs and saved files, but a backup is highly recommended. Or... this could be a good motive to learn french.
Answer 2 :
If your OS is Microsoft windows and you can understand French then proceed thru the steps:(idon know french so in english) 1.click "start" 2.click "settings" 3.click "control panel" 4 click "Date, time ,language and regional options" 5.click "Language and Regional options" 6.in Language and Regional options dialog box click "language" tab then select your desired language 7.click "Apply" buttun 8.click "ok" if you cann't understand french, then you can ask your frierd to help you to change the language of your OS. If he is not available then you have to install a new clean copy of your OS.During the installation period you will see various steps. Keep attention to those steps. At somepoint setup will ask you to select your date,time, timezone.language and other preferences. Then you can select your desired language (which is English (United States) ) by default and setup will configure your OS to your selected language.
