Office Update is in wrong language

[Cindy]

I visited a site in German and clicked on link to
Microsoft from there. Ever since, the Office Update site
comes up in German, not English. I've tried going to it
through various different places and specifing the
language in the url to no avail. Is this a registry
setting? Please help.

Hi Cindy,

See if going to this page and then selecting your country link restores the page.

Another approach is to delete the cookie that saves the country/language
information. The name will vary somewhat, but will contain
"office.microsoft.com".

In Internet explorer go to: tools/Internet Options/Delete Cookies

That worked! I knew there had to be a way, but it sure
wasn't obvious. I saved the link in case it ever happens
again.
Thanks,
Cindy
