How To – Change the language of the vSphere Web Client 6.x

By default, the vSphere Web Client will use the language set in the operating system (in my case) or the language of your web browser.

Here how to change the default language when you open the client….

To change the language you juste have to add the localization parameter to the URL, for example :

vSphere Web Client in English : 

https://IPorFQDN_of_vCenter/vsphere-client/?locale=en_US

vSphere Web Client in French : 

https://IPorFQDN_of_vCenter/vsphere-client/?locale=fr_FR

Other languages :

  • German : de_DE
  • Japanese : ja_JP
  • Chinese : zh_CN
  • Korean : ko_KR

You can also find some information about that in this vMware KB (5.5 KB but you have language identifier) : KB 1016403
