SQL Server Management Studio does not use color in text editor


I currently have an issue with my SSMS since my PC has been reformatted with windows 10. It doesnt show any functions name with the correct color (should be pink), string (should be red), JOIN (should be grey), etc.

The only keyword it recognize are SELECT, INSERT, PRINT, TRANSACTION and couple more. I checked into my font & colors settings and they are set correctly. I even reinstalled twice without any difference.

EDIT: Here is an image of how it look like, its a link because i am not allowed to embbed an image directly

EDIT2: Here is my settings on SQL System Function

Solution

  • I finally found the solution. My Tools -> Options -> International Settings -> Language was set to "Same as Microsoft Windows" which is French. But the rest of my interface is in English. I guess there is a bug where the Setting are in French, but the Editor in English and cant find the color coding properly.

    Hope it can help anyone with this problem!
