Hi guys!
I would like to change the language of the Report Server from English. For example the language of buttons (like favourites, settings, etc..). I know that I can change the language of the visualization with browser settings, but it's not happening with buttons. Is this possible somehow?
Thank you in advance for your answer!
Hi @PowerDinosaur ,
language and Locale settings in the client browser determine the language resource used for report manager. For example, a user who uses a French version of IE to access a report server on a Japanese operating system, will work with French versions of Report Manager. But only the user interface components are affected by client language settings. The reports that you view and manage retain the language settings that were previously set for the report.

How is it used? |

Report server language |
The report server language is the language of the operating system on which the report server is installed. This language is determined by the regional settings of the computer. The report server language is the language used by a report server instance for the following items:
There are currently ten SQL Server languages. The report server language for a given report server instance will always be one of the ten available languages. Support for all ten of the SQL Server languages is provided in a single Reporting Services installation. There are no language packs to install. The report server language is set when you create the report server database. If you use the Reporting Services Configuration tool to create the database, you specify the report server language when you run the Change Database Wizard. If you install Reporting Services in a default configuration, Setup determines the report server language when it creates the report server database. The language resource that Setup uses is the one that mostly closely matches the language of the operating system:

Client browser language |
Language and Locale settings in the client browser determine the language resource used for:
|
Report language |
Reports use language settings for labels and formats:
|
Database language |
Data that appears within a report is determined by the actual data values within the database and by database server collation settings. |
SharePoint user interface |
Language and Locale settings for the SharePoint user interface (UI) culture determine the language resources that are used for:
|
.NET Framework language pack |
When the .NET Framework language pack is installed, errors returned by the .NET Framework are returned based on client language and locale settings. These errors include Reporting Services errors displayed in the SharePoint UI and in Report Manager. |

Reporting Services uses the language of the client's browser but you can override that setting. See the msdn post below.
