# Changing Default Language

Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS uses the default language that Windows is using. Follow the steps below to change the default language.

On the desktop, right-click the Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS shortcut (create one if there is no a shortcut on the desktop) and go to **Properties** and add “-locale=(short name for country)” to the end of the register360.exe path as shown in image. For example, for Germany, it would look like this ”-locale=de”.

Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS must be started from the link for the change to take effect.
