How to set MSDN to be always in English

Very legitimate question, I think.

You need to modify the url like explained here. In your case change cz-cz to en-us.

Or better, let it do a browser plugin like Redirector for firefox:

I wrote a simple dedicated browser extension for this. Unlike the Redirector plugin, no configuration is required.

It's called "FFS MSDN in English" and is available for:

  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Opera

It simply redirects any localised MSDN (or docs.microsoft) page to the english (en-us) version.

The rather trivial sources can be found at https://github.com/AirLancer/ffs_msdn_in_english


I've fixed it by installing a redirector plugin for chrome: http://bendavis78.github.io/chrome-extension-redirector/


MSDN Set Language

You can select your default language from bottom left of the page.

Edit

New docs site has an easier option to view in English. However, the setting is not permanent.
