The language selector you see during installation sets the installer
language, not the language of the installed executable.  In fact, there
is no "German version" or "English version" of x2goclient.exe.  It
always contains *every* language we support.

That is expected behavior, see the above-mentioned reason.

My guess is that you have both your German and English version set to
use "German (Germany)" instead of "English (United States)" in

(English path) Control Panel\Clock, Language, and Region\Region and Language

(German path) Systemsteuerung\Zeit, Sprache und Region\Region und Sprache

That setting is what determines the UI language of x2goclient.exe.
