The ProVide web interface is available in ten languages: Swedish, English, Chinese (Mandarin), Traditional Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Spanish, Thai, and Turkish. To switch, click the cog-wheel icon on the right-hand side of the ProVide web interface and choose your language. The setting applies to both the regular user login and to collaboration links, so external partners can work in their own language too.
Manage files in any language #
ProVide has full UTF-8 support across every platform it runs on, which means it handles folder names and file names in any language, including non-Latin scripts. Combined with a translated interface, this makes ProVide a practical file transfer and collaboration platform for international teams and partners.
Where language selection applies #
Your language choice covers two places: the standard user interface that account holders log in to, and the collaboration links you send to outside partners. Each person picks the language that suits them, which is what makes ProVide workable for cross-border collaboration.
The ProVide user interface currently supports:
- Swedish
- English
- Chinese (Mandarin)
- Traditional Chinese
- Japanese
- French
- German
- Spanish
- Thai
- Turkish
If you or your organization needs a language that isn’t listed, contact us and we can look at adding it.
A note on the admin interface #
The administration interface and the installer are in English only, and so is this page. We recommend installing on the host server in English as a rule, because if you run into an issue with the Windows server, Active Directory, policies, security groups, or the Windows registry, troubleshooting information is far easier to find in English. This applies to any Windows server, not just ProVide.
