Not sure when or how this happened, but when I right-click on the "my computer" desktop icon and select properties, all the text in the various tabs is German (not how it used to be - english). Control panel / regional settings is set to US/English.

When I plug in a new USB device and windows opens the "finding new hardware" dialogs, they're all in german.

How do I change those back to English?

Would nusb36a_de.exe have done all this???

Yes! Now you know why there're warnings everywhere that NUSB is *language specific*.

Hope for the best and try to apply the latest English version (NUSB36e) over it, and answer yes to any message asking whether you want to substitute a file for another that is the same version or older with YES... Try NUSB 3.6 first (nusb36e.exe is the English file). If it does not solve it post back, before trying anything else.

The english version of the file (nusb36e.exe) worked. I had to answer "no" to the question if I wanted to keep the existing german .cpl file.

How long has this english version been available? I think only the german version existed at the time I was looking...

Since 04 June 2012, the date of the post I quoted. That's Maximus-Decim official release post. The German version cannot have preceeded the English version, because it's based on it.
