Hello all,

In Budgie Control Center → Region and language

I can´t change the language from English (united States) to Português (Portugal):

 ![Captura de ecrã de 2022-04-25 17-38-57](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/ubuntubudgie/original/2X/9/9548dd89cbf70b407f188b860ae8419770a74929.png)

And when I try and press the Select button, don’t work and change the format to United States.

Am I doing something wrong?

Best regards,  
Francisco

yeah - this is a bug.

Please create a bug-report:

```
ubuntu-bug budgie-control-center

```

As a workaround - copy & paste the following in a terminal to change region & languages

```
gnome-control-center region
```
