Interface Overview and Personalization

This page gives you a map of the client interface: which pages each sidebar group contains, what's in the top bar, how to switch the interface language, and what you can personalize under System → User Settings.

"Window Sync" and "AI Agent" open in separate windows; all other entries switch pages inside the main window. While a kernel download is in progress or has failed, a red dot appears next to "Updates".

Switching the interface language​

The client interface is available in "中文" (Chinese) and "English". On first launch, it follows the Windows display language (Chinese on Chinese systems, English on all others). When you switch, the main window, standalone windows, and tray menu all change immediately, with no restart. There are three ways to switch:

  • Tray menu: Right-click the tray icon → "Language", then choose from the submenu.
  • User menu: Click your avatar in the top bar and pick a language under "Interface Language".
  • User Settings: Change "Interface Language" under System → User Settings → Preferences, then click "Save Settings".

The interface language is saved to your account; you'll see "Language synced" when that succeeds. If it can't reach the server right away, you'll see "The language is applied locally. Sync is pending." and the client still shows the new language on this device.

The interface language doesn't affect websites

The interface language only changes the client's own display. The language websites see inside a browser profile is set by the profile's "Web Language". See Basic Info Settings.

Theme and interface language switches in the user menu

User Settings​

Open System → User Settings. The page has three tabs: "Preferences", "Storage & Cleanup", and "Startup & Account", with "Refresh" and "Save Settings" buttons at the top.

Close all profiles before changing the cache directory

You can't switch while any profile is running or syncing; you'll see "Close all browser profiles and wait for sync to finish before switching the cache directory". After you click "Choose Folder" and pick a new folder, the "Confirm Cache Directory Change" dialog appears. Data in the old directory is never deleted automatically:

  • Migrate and Switch: Copies the profile data from the old directory to the new one, then switches. Don't close the client during migration; you'll see "Profile cache directory migration complete" when it's done. Available only when the old directory has data and the new one is empty.
  • Switch Without Migrating: Changes the directory only. Sign-in states, cookies, extensions, and profile settings are not copied, so profiles in the new directory may be empty.
  • Cancel Change: Keeps the current directory.

A cache directory change takes effect as soon as you confirm it; you don't need to click "Save Settings". If the client can't confirm your original cache directory (for example, the drive was removed), the page shows "Cache directory needs confirmation" at the top. Click "Choose Original Directory or Confirm New One" to locate your original data directory.

Startup & Account​

FieldDescriptionDefault
Show Welcome Page on StartupToggleOn
Launch at StartupToggle; adds the client to the system login items. If unsupported, you'll see "Launch at startup is not supported on this system"Off
Keyboard ShortcutsText areaEmpty
Click "Save Settings" after making changes

Except for the cache directory, changes don't take effect until you click "Save Settings" at the top; you'll see "User settings saved". If you leave the page with unsaved changes, the "Save User Settings?" dialog appears ("Your user settings have changed but have not been saved."). Choose "Save and Leave" or "Don't Save"; with "Don't Save", any unsaved theme change is reverted.
