I have vista and want to change from German to English OS. HELP!!! Pleeeeaaase. | 22 Gabs, on Sep 18, 2009 6:10:45 pm BSTHello Kikat,
there is a software package on the internet that helps you change the language of ur Vista. it is called 'Vistalizator'. I have used it and it works for me.
Open the following link:
http://www.froggie.sk/download.html
1. Click on Vistalizator on the first line of the text to download the software.
2. U need to download the English language pack (MUI) from the links that follow (where u have 'Download MUI language pack(s):'
3. Click on the link that shows ur computer specifications in the list displayed like this:
(for 32-bit Vista RTM (without a SP)
for 32-bit Vista SP1
for 32-bit Vista SP2
for 64-bit Vista RTM (without a SP)
for 64-bit Vista SP1
for 64-bit Vista SP2
(Note: to know ur computer specifications, go to Start>>Computer. Right-click on 'Computer' and take 'Properties'. This should display ur computer properties and u will find the specifications here)
4. When u click on the link that matches ur specifications (eg 32-bit Vista SP1), a new page will open with different languages. This is where u download the language pack.
5. Since u want english, click on english to download the english language pack.
6. Now u should have the Vistalizator and the English Language Pack downloaded and saved.
7. Double-click on the Vistalizator set-up u first downloaded. This should open a window with a command that says 'Add Language'.
8/ Click on 'Add language' and it will warrant u to select the .exe file (which in this case is the English language pack that u downloaded).
9. Locate the language pack where u saved it and select it.
10. Click on Open to add the english language in the list of language(s) u have in Vistalizator).
11. Then select English Language from the language list and click on 'Change Language'.
12. Give it some time to load the english.
13. Follow any other instructions on screen and at the end of everything, restart ur computer. Everything should now be in English.
Like i said, it worked for me and people i have sent it to. I hope it works for u too. Let me know ur result if u try it please.
Gabz. | 23 Wizkid, on Sep 25, 2009 12:53:24 pm BSTI used that tool to change my language and i found out that, i could not open and use certain things on my vista pc. Like i could not open my windows update and my document files folder, all this happened once i changed my language to English. But when i changed my language back to the pc original language i could open all the folder named above.
Does anyone know a solution to that problem?? I w as also wondering if that is something that applies to everyone else or was it just me??? LOL.. | 24 Gabz, on Sep 26, 2009 11:06:45 pm BSTHello Wizkid,
Really i changed my language and everything is working good. If urs is not working, then there was mistakein the procedure.
Did u make sure u downloaded the language pack for ur pc specifications? (ie 16bit,24bit, etc)
If u did, then open vistalizator again, highlight english and click on update. It make ask u to download and install some update files for the english language. Follow those instructions and update the language pack. (If it requires that u download some update, copy the update file name into google, search for it and download).
Hope this helps!!! if it doesn't, please let us know how else u solved the problem...if u solve it.
Gabzzzzzzzzz. | 25 Wizkid, on Sep 28, 2009 5:19:24 pm BSTHi Gabz, i did that the first time i changed my langugage to English, i clicked the update button on Vistali and i downloaded the updates that it needed but still it didn't help at all. And yes i did download the right specs for my LP which is 32 bits.
I haven't solved it as yet, but i can always try to change the language and update it again to see if it help this time around will get back to you as soon as i can. |
| 26 Wizkid, on Sep 30, 2009 9:45:39 am BSTHei Gabzz i did what you said but still i still can't open the same folders, i don't know if they are the only folders and files that are affeceted when i change the language since i haven't gone through every folder and file in my system. It kinda sucks when i can't open windows update and my work/school file and folders.
This goes out to the general public, if anyone knows how to fixs this please do share the solution ok. Personally i have no idea what so ever lol, thanks in advance people. |
