I can not change the display language to chinese
beacuse the current is chinses(ofcause it's not)

what i can do is change to another language and change back to chinese

@heartacker I've done a lot of work in this space in the past 5months can you try this again?

[heartacker]

I'm facing the issue with last update.

[heartacker]

can anybody help to fix this, we are suffering

[TylerLeonhardt]

So I gave this a try, and here is my experience:

Untitled.mp4

Ignore the other VS Code window that has a different background color. That's VS Code Insiders and should have no affect on this

As you can see, the language does stay set after I apply the update. This is the ideal experience.

Based on your screenshots, are you using Windows? I'm wondering if we're doing something different on Windows...

After an update happens, can you tell me if, when you run the >Preferences: Configure Runtime Arguments command, that JSON file has a locale property and what is it set to?

If you need to downgrade and re-upgrade in order to repro the issue, you can grab the 1.76 version here: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_76

I am using windows
and all of my windows pc have the same Issue

1. update to newer version of vscode
2. Chinese package will be update automatically
3. reload window now
4. display language say we are still using Chinese but UI is english

@heartacker when you see this, can you tell me if, when you run the >Preferences: Configure Runtime Arguments command, that JSON file has a locale property and what is it set to?

Additionally, can you check if the Extensions pane says that the Chinese Language Pack is installed?

Bizarre... ok can you try:

• Open the Command Palette

• Run the Developer: Set Log Level... command

• To the right of Trace, click the double check mark button. ✔️ ✔️ (enables trace logging as the default)

• Wait for the issue to happen...

• Open the Output pane (ctrl+shift+u I think on Windows)

• drop in this issue he contents of the following:

  • Window Output channel
  • Main Output channel

• Open the Command Palette

• Run the Developer: Set Log Level... command

• To the right of Info, click the double check mark button. ✔️ ✔️ (to set the default back to info)

And are you able to workaround the problem by changing the language to English in the Configure Display Language and then restart... and then do it again setting it to Chinese?

The bug still exists after 15 months. Exactly same behavior after updating.

我也遇到了这个问题。
我发现语言包更新后用Developer:Reload Window命令重启会出现这个问题，但是如果手动关闭vscode窗口，然后重新打开会正常显示中文。
