I want to change the GUI back to English.
What I have tried until now is >  
Change the language trough the console: -lang=en_US
Change the config file with new line: lang=en also tried with lang=en_US
No success until now.

Bitcoin Client Software and Version Number: v0.20.0
Operating System: Win10 64bit
System Hardware Specs: Nor relevant
Description of Problem: Cannot change the default language.
Any Related Addresses: none
Any Related Transaction IDs:none
Screenshot of the problem: none
Log Files from the Bitcoin Client: can post if needed.

You need to start Bitcoin-qt with that as a start parameter.

If you're using Windows, create a shortcut and add --lang=en_US at the end of the "Target" but outside the quotation marks.
Eg:
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" --lang=en_US

I didn't want to create shortcuts but it worked, thank you. It's a bit weird that you don't have this option it the meny or the settings or at least a console command.
Locking this one as Solved for future reference.
