Why did FCPX 10.2 swap my help files to German? How do I get them back to English?

Noticed two weeks ago that FCPX 10.2 while running in English ,

had swapped out my FCPX help files to German.

Why does this happen, and how can I get the help back

to English without reinstalling?

Running older iMac that cannot go up to 10.2.3

Thank you!

Hello Al, and thanks for the reply.
I did try resetting the language prefs a few times, and it served up French and Portugese.

I had even tried moving those language folders out of the app folder - no dice.

I will try reshuffling all theprefs within that pane and report back.


Update/ Report back: did reshuffle in sys pref>language.
No dice. FCPX help now loads in some weird form of Spanish (after not being found at first).

So:

refresh prefs a third time?

reinstall fcpx 10.2?

thanks.....
