When I open Firefox from my account to log in to Facebook, it displays the page interface in Japanese and I cannot switch it to English.

This usually happens when Facebook is detecting a different language preference (or region setting) from your browser/session, rather than a Firefox “problem” itself.

Here are some practical steps to fix it:

1. Change Facebook language manually (most important)

Even if the interface is in Japanese, try:

Scroll to the bottom of the page Look for a language option (it may show as 日本語) Change it to English (US) / English (UK)

If you can’t find it easily, try this direct link after login:

https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=language 2. Force English via URL (quick workaround)

Try opening Facebook like this:

https://www.facebook.com/?locale=en_US

This often overrides the default language temporarily.

3. Check Firefox language settings

Sometimes Firefox sends a language preference to websites.

Go to Settings → General → Language Set preferred language to English (US) Remove or move Japanese below English if it exists

Then restart Firefox.

4. Clear cookies for Facebook

If Facebook saved a Japanese preference:

Open Firefox settings Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data Search “facebook.com” Remove cookies/cache for Facebook Log in again 5. Disable VPN / location-based mismatch (if any)

If you are using:

VPN Proxy Or a region-based extension

Facebook may auto-load Japanese based on detected region.

Try turning it off and reload Facebook.

6. Check Facebook account language (permanent fix)

Once you regain access:

Settings & privacy → Settings Language and region Set Display Language to English
