While working with ASP.NET MVC, I have noticed that exception messages issued by the .NET framework installed on my System are in German. I'd really prefer English messages, so I can post them on SO.
I know this has been asked before on SO, but strangely enough none of the suggested workarounds seem to work in my case. I have already tried the following:
setting the thread locale to English right before the exception is thrown as follows:
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture ("en-US"); Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture=new CultureInfo("en-US");
//call my faulty method...
So, how can I make the .NET framework issue English language exception messages? And is there any approach that does this on a per-solution or even system-wide basis?
Edit: The exception is thrown while excuting my unit tests. I am not sure if this is the reason setting the thread's culture had not effect.

The .NET Framework (pronounced as "dot net") is a proprietary software framework developed by Microsoft that runs primarily on Microsoft Windows. It was the predominant implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) until being superseded by the cross-platform .NET project.
NET framework isn't dead; it just won't be developed by Microsoft anymore. Many other organizations are committed to its continued use and development, including Xamarin and Unity. That said, there is a big question of what will happen to the apps written in . NET.
Uninstall the German language pack:
Start - Control Panel - Programs and Functions - Microsoft .NET Framework (4 Client Profile) Language Pack DEU - Uninstall (Deinstallieren)
You may need to repeat the uninstallation for each version of .NET Framework that you find there.
