Changing FCPX help topic language

Hi all


I'm using FCPX 10.4.7 on Catalina 10.15.1 and the FCP menus are in English, but help files (ie help topics when I search under the Help menus and start typing) are German. I'd like both to be English.


Under System Preferences, Language & Region English is the preferred language at the top. I also have German below English in the Language & Region settings.



I can't find any pointers to changing just the help language to English which is what I'd like to do... does anyone here know?


Many thanks


Andrew

Thanks Luis, worth a try.


The menus etc switched to German and help stayed in German. Changing back to English as the preferred language changed the menus, but help results stayed in German. I also rebooted in between times to see if that made a difference (system language & menus didn't change without a reboot), but it didn't make a difference. Odd behaviour. It's almost as easy to google as to use help, so not a disaster, but it's a bit annoying!
