@harvey5860,

 

It looks like you were interacting with @A4Apollo, but he is out for the day & I'll be glad to help you out, 
I'm the Jeet_Singh & I'm at your service. 

 

As I understand the issue seems to be only when logged in to your google chrome account. Don't worry I'll do my best to help you with this issue.

 

Have you tried to use different browsers? Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall google chrome?

 

In the meantime, let's try to check the settings: 

 

Click the wrench/tools menu, select "Options" (the fourth option from the bottom), click on the last tab, then click on the fifth button from the bottom, select the second tab and choose English in the second drop-down. 

 

Please try these steps suggested and get back to us with the results of the troubleshooting for further assistance.

Eagerly waiting for your response!

I hope you have a good day ahead,

And Feel free to ask your queries as this forum has some of the best people in the world available and ready to help.

Regards,

Hi! @harvey5860, Thanks for stopping by the HP Support Forums!

 

I understand you are receiving greek language emails on your PC.

 

Don't worry I'll try to help you out.

 

Did you make any software or hardware changes on your PC?

 

What application are you using send or receive emails on your PC?

 

Have you tried checking with a different email client? Does the issue persist?

 

Is all the email you receive is in Greek language or is it only a few?

 

Please provide the product number of your PC to assist you better.

 

As you mentioned you are receiving greek language emails on your PC.

 

The email that you are receiving might be spam or invalid.

 

So do not open those emails try deleting or unsubscribe from those emails.

 

Also, if you are receiving all the emails in greek try changing the language on your email client.

 

If you are using Gmail client try the steps recommended below to change the language.

  1. Open Gmail.
  2. In the top right, click Settings Settings.
  3. Click Settings.
  4. In the "Language" section, pick a language from the drop-down menu.
  5. At the bottom of the page, click Save Changes.

 

If you are using Outlook on your PC try the steps recommended below to change the language.

 

Step 1: Click the File Options.

Step 2: In the Outlook Options dialog box, click the Language in the left bar, and go to the Choose Display and Help Languages section, click to select a language from the Display Language box, and then click the Set as Default button below the box.

Hello,

 

Thanks for responding. I actually misspoke earlier as the issue is not related to my email, but shows up in my google chrome on certain web pages when I am logged into my google account. If I log in as guest, the greek issue does not occur.

 

As an example, I recently checked the National Hurricane Center website and the following came up when I performed a search:

As you can see from the above post, the language shows up as Greek lettering. If I log into Google Chrome as a guest, this is how the same web page appears:

I appreciate any thoughts you have as to what may be causing this issue.

 

Thanks,

Harvey

Did you "logout" from your Google ID, delete your web-browsers "temporary internet files", close the web-browser, re-open the web-browser, login to your Google ID, and try again to access that web-site?
