Use Windows settings to control the display language

> ℹ️ **Note**  
> ℹ️ If you are using a Chinese version of Windows, this may already be the default language configuration and you may not need the instructions below.

To ensure the application displays in Simplified Chinese, check the following settings in Windows.

1. Within the **Language & Region** settings, ensure that you have installed the **Chinese (Simplified, Mainland China)** language pack on your machine.
2. Change the **Regional format** to **Chinese (Simplified, Mainland China)**.

> ⚠️ **Note**  
> ⚠️ Following these steps may also affect the language displayed in other applications on your PC.

Use a JSON file to operate Tracker 4 in Simplified Chinese

If you want to keep Windows in another language (eg, English), but operate Tracker 4 in Simplified Chinese, complete the following steps.

1. Create a JSON file called *Tracker4.json*.
2. Populate the file with the following content:
  `[`  
`    { `  
`        "Version": [ `  
`            1,`  
`   ``            ``0, `  
`            ``0`  
`        ``]`  
`    ``}, `  
`    ``{`  
`        ``"LocaleCode": "zh-CN"`  
`    ``}`  
`]`
3. Place this file in the following location:   
*C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Vicon\Settings\Tracker4.json*  
If the *Settings* folder does not exist in this path, create the folder.

If you are uncertain how to create the JSON file or would like the file to be provided for you, please contact [Vicon Support](mailto:support@vicon.com).
