McAfee mobile Security suddenly changed language

Dear all,

I currently am using McAfee Mobile Security v4.9.3.863 on a Android phone running on Android version 6.0.1.

Recently I received the "WIFI attack" message on my mobile and noticed that the half of my McAfee inferface had a diffrent language than my Default language (Dutch) (see screenshot attached).

Is this error known or is this the work of virus/malware? Can you please advise me on how I can fix this issue?

Many thanks in advance and hope to hear from you soon.

Kind regards,

Glenn

How do I get McAfee MMS to reset to the original language (Dutch). Ever since the Wifi SSLsplit issues McAfee on my mobile phone is in Dutch and Norwegian. I have tried restarting my phone. That did resolve the Wifi issue. But it did not reset the language issue. Does anyone have any ideas?McAfee issue NL-NO Language.png

Someone in the Dutch Community is reporting the same issue, so there must be a glitch somewhere in the programming.

I don't use it so I can't offer suggestions, I'm just pointing out that you aren't alone.
