So not sure if I should pitch this question in the OpenEMR forums or the xampp forums, but since I downloaded the “Pre-installed OpenEMR with the XAMPP Package” from the website, I thought I did try this here.

In order to secure my XAMPP, I tried to navigate to the Security Console via [http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php](http://localhost/security/xamppsecurity.php). However, as the Welcome page is in a foreign language, I was trying to figure out how to change it… I dont see a left sidebar as the Open-EMR website suggests… Please help! ☹

At the Welcome page, under Sprachen (as in speaking) English is under Deutsch (German).

If you go to localhost/xampp/splash.php, click English. It’s the first language depicted in the attachment.

Also look for a choice of languages in the upper right of the webpage.
