Hi,
Do i understand well that this would change the interface language for all
Windows programs ?
I work with Windows 11 OS in French and want to work with PSPP in English.
How to make that I get only PSPP in English , and not changing the entire OS
interface language?

The official PSPP docs say: https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/faq.html#Language
I asked ChatGPT how to apply this to Windows 10 and here's what it said.
Obviously, this may not be correct/fully correct.

To configure the PSPP interface language on Windows 10, follow these steps:
1. **Open the Control Panel:**
- Press `Win + R` to open the Run dialog.
- Type `control` and press Enter.
2. **Change the Region and Language Settings:**
- Go to **Clock and Region**.
- Click on **Region**.
- In the **Formats** tab, click on **Additional settings** if needed to
access more detailed settings.
- Switch to the **Administrative** tab and click on **Change system
locale**.
- Select the desired language (e.g., Portuguese). Click OK and restart
your computer if prompted.
3. **Verify the Environment Variable:**
- Open **File Explorer** and right-click on **This PC**, then select
**Properties**.
- Click on **Advanced system settings**.
- In the System Properties window, go to the **Advanced** tab and click on
**Environment Variables**.
- In the Environment Variables window, check if there is a variable named
`LANG`. If not, click **New** under the System variables section.
- Set the variable name to `LANG` and the value to `pt_PT` (for Portuguese
spoken in Portugal) or `pt_BR` (for Brazilian Portuguese). Click OK to save.
4. **Restart PSPP:**
- Close PSPP if it is open and then restart it. The interface should now
display in the selected language.
This should configure PSPP to display in the language you have set in the
Windows environment.

This is advice about a Linux-oriented software package. What advice should I
give Windows 10 users?
##
How do I configure the PSPP interface language?
PSPP respects the locale of the environment. So if, for example, your operating
system (or the currently logged in user) is set to Portuguese, then that is
what PSPP will display.
How you change the environment's locale depends on the operating system. For
example, on GNU or on GNU/Linux you could use the command export LANG=pt_PT
(for Portuguese spoken in Portugal) or export LANG=pt_BR for Brazillian
Portuguese. This should also work for all operating systems which are POSIX
compliant. For others, you will have to refer to your OS documentation.

Does this work for you?

If not, reply to this note and let us know what happens. PSPP builds on Linux,
so the devs have limited Windows access/experience.
