How to set the language in Oracle SQL Developer

After obtaining a new notebook  from my company, I reinstalled my developer tools, including Oracle SQL Developer.

My Notebook is configured in French, and the outcome was that SQL Developer was also configured in french, which is not what I wanted - decrypting Oracle server errors in french is not very helplful.

There is no global preference or setting where the language can be set.

I found a solution in this post in Stackoverflow:

add the following option to to the file sqldeveloper.conf file located under %sqldeveloper-home\sqldeveloper\bin :

AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
