Change default settings
During installation, Tableau configures default settings for your display language and repository location. If you want to change those settings you can do this after install is complete.
Tableau also enables certain features for you by default such as usage reporting or automated product updates (Tableau Desktop only). For information about how to turn off these features and more, see Change Installation Settings after Installation.
Set your display language (optional)
When you first run Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder, it recognizes your computer locale using the User Locale setting and uses the appropriate language if it is supported. If you are using an unsupported language, the application defaults to English.
You can configure Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder to display the user interface (menus, messages, etc.) in a different language by selecting Help > Choose Language from the top menu. Restart the application to apply the change.
For Tableau Prep Builder, the display format for numbers and dates is based on the locale of the operating system on the machine where the application is installed. For Tableau Desktop you can configure date and number formatting for your workbooks. For more information see Language and Locale in the Tableau User help.
Change your My Tableau Repository location (optional)
During install, Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep Builder automatically creates a My Tableau <application> Repository folder structure in your documents folder on your computer. If you need to move this repository to another location, for example because you are required to have your data on a network server instead of on your local machine, you can specify a new location and point Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder to the new folder.
When setting a new location for your repository, the following rules apply:
- The new folder must be a directory.
- You must have permissions to write to the new folder.
- The new folder can't be located in the existing My Tableau Repository folder structure.
Note: Changing the repository location does not move the files contained in the original repository. Instead, Tableau creates a new repository where you can store your files.
- Open Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep Builder.
- From the top menu, select File >Repository Location.
- In the Select Repository Folder dialog, select a new folder that will act as the new repository location.
- Restart the application to use the new repository.
