You create a new project. You cannot change the source language once the project is already created.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your reply. However, it is one of the 5 configured source languages I have to change. I never translate from French in Studio anymore, but I do translate from Norwegian in Studio. I have Studio 2017 and as far as I have been able to gauge, I cannot make that change myself by removing and re-installing Studio.
Please advise.

Ok, you wanted to change the languages you selected when installing Studio 2017, not the source language which can only really refer to project or a translated bilingual file.
In 2017 you are correct, you normally have to reinstall and it doesn't always work. So the best way is to do this:
That should cause Studio to ask you for your five languages all over again and now you can select the ones you really want.
