Homepage gets redirected automatically to language

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
After I added Vietnamese to my site, the site gets automatically redirected to the second language. Even when I delete /vi/ manually from the URL, it gets added again.

Solution:
Vietnamese was accidentally set as the default language of the site by another user.

Mohamed Sayed	Hi there, Thanks for contacting WPML support. I checked the site but I can't see this issue, the hidden link URL can be accessed without any redirect. I also checked the URL with this tool hidden link and it doesn't show any redirect (hidden link) The debug info of the site shows that the browser language redirect option is also disabled, so could you please tell me the exact steps to see this issue? Kind regards, Mohamed

tobiasW-41	Thanks for your answer. I found it myself. It was an error of a translator who accidentally set his language as default 🙂 Sorry! BTW, I cannot press the button "My issue is resolved". There seems to be a browser problem.
