Specific suggestions:
* "In order to" can almost always be shortened to "to".
* "Activate the changes" could be more specific: "use the new default language".
* "Restart your session" could be confused with restarting the computer, so 
it's probably better to refer just to logging out instead. But I assume the new 
language will apply even if someone *else* ends up logging in, so it's logging 
out that's the relevant action.
* "Login" and "logout" are nouns; the verbs are "log in" and "log out". "Re-" 
doesn't work for compound words, therefore you would use "log in again" instead.
* "At your earliest convenience" is unnecessary: all that you need to 
communicate is when the language change will take effect. Whether it's urgent 
enough for the person to want to switch at their earliest convenience is 
something you can't know.

Combined suggestion:
"The new default language will take effect once you have logged out."

Better suggestion: Don't put that sentence in an alert at all. (The only
reason I accepted the alert in the first place was that I assumed it
would contain a restart button.) Instead, put it in small print under
the "Default language" menu, whenever the selected value has not yet
been applied.

Restart-required alert is jargon-filled and doesn't let you restart
