I hope I am in the right subject. I had some warranty work done early last year (I am out of warranty now) and I have not had a need to use my diagnostic tools, but I needed to calibrate my battery, and after I hit ESC then F2 it is loading in Spanish. No clue how to fix that.

@Short6877, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
I can help you with that! It sounds like the language settings for your diagnostics tool have changed. Here’s how you can switch it back to English:

  1. Restart your laptop and press the ESC key repeatedly until the Startup Menu opens.
  2. Press F2 to open the System Diagnostics.
  3. Once in the System Diagnostics, look for a language option at the bottom or top of the screen. It might be labeled as "Idioma" (Spanish for "Language").
  4. Select the language option and change it to English.

If you don't see the language option directly, you might need to navigate through the menus. Look for terms like "Configuración" (Settings) or "Opciones" (Options) to find the language settings.
 

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
