Language setting

Good morning,

Working on Mac, my system is in english, I'm located in France, but Workfront won't display in english.

I need it to be in english, how to change this (I'm using the new experience)?

Thanks for your help.

Workfront uses the local settings of the browser you are using, so in Chrome that would be chrome://settings/languages and then set English as the first entry.

Is there no way you can have WF in English for example (our language for work), but not change your own Chrome language settings (keep those as French for example)?

I might add to that. Workfront doesn't always honor the date/time format in other locales. If your system is set to UK, you see some dates as mm/dd/yyyy and some as dd/mm/yyyy as well as some times in 12 hour format and some in 24 hour format. It isn't consistent and there seems to be no rhyme or reason.
