The other https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478541 was also reported by me, but is something very different. I try to be more clear: When I installed 8.2.0 then digiKam settings worked fine. It was possible to change the main language and the settings have been applied. After upgrading to 8.3.0 (the beta or pre-realease digiKam-8.3.0-20231214T211706-Win64.exe) the main language settings have no effect. They are just ignored. It is not possible to switch the GUI to English. But I want to switch to English, because most documentation and help is in English, and therefore it is easier to use the program in English.
Created attachment 164190 [details] GUI will not switch to German Here is a screenshot. Settings are US-English, but GUI will not change. Restart of the program doesn't switch.
