So, Microsoft Edge is totally glitching out on me when it comes to translating pages—like, the option shows up, but when I actually try to use it, nothing happens. It’s driving me nuts! Even weirder? Wikipedia is being super hit-or-miss; sometimes it’ll translate just fine, but most of the time, it just refuses to work. It's completely inconsistent. Does anyone actually know how to fix this mess?

You can actually go into your Microsoft Edge settings and manually set which languages you prefer and what order they should be in.
Then there's the translation feature, which is turned on by default. If Microsoft Edge notices a site is in a language that isn't on your preferred list, it'll pop up and offer to translate it. But if the site matches one of your preferred languages, it won't bother you with a translation request.

If your settings look correct but it’s still being glitchy—like it translates some pages but skips others randomly—try disabling your extensions one by one. If that doesn't fix it, try resetting Microsoft Edge back to its default settings.

And honestly, if none of that works, just install Google Chrome. 🙂

Finally fixed it. 👍

I actually had to go in and kick English out of my preferred language settings just to get things working right.

Still hasn't fixed a damn thing. It’ll only translate certain pages—like, selectively choosing what it wants to work on or whatever. Some sites just won't budge, even though they don't have any protection or anything blocking it. I haven't even installed a single extension yet. I'm gonna try switching over to a different browser and see if that actually does something.
