Website Language Settings According to the Region

Website Language Settings According to the Region

Hello,

 

Is it possible for the Dropbox website to change its language according to the regional settings of browser? So that when I open it in another country the language was different. Particularly, I need a foreign guy to edit my Excel file online, but when he enters it, the display language (menus, buttons etc.) is set as mine, so he doesn't understand anything. Or should it be somehow connected to Office 365 settings?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Центр я., can you try to share the file with him using these steps? You can also give him edit access that way.

 

If he enters your account, it'd make sense that the account's info would be registered to your own country, unless he changes it.

Hi @Центр я., let's look right into this! 

 

In regards to the first question, about the language of your Dropbox account, I believe that you would need to manually change it from the account settings. 

 

As for the Excel file, have you shared it with the person you're referring to? Or does he enter your account, in order to edit it? 

 

Let me know more!

Hi Megan,

 

The second option: he entered the account. I tried to give him a link copied, but unfortunately it somehow does not allow to edit information in the document.
