How to change Windows language in Windows 7 Professional [duplicate]
How can I change the Windows language from Spanish to English in a Windows 7 Professional?
Please note that this is not Enterprise or Ultimate version. So the normal way using a MUI is not possible.
Solution 1:
The installation of additional languages is normally not possible - unless you upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate or Enterprise.
However, it can be done. But it will violate your Windows EULA.
Instructions
- Download the MUI (Multilingual User Interface) for your Language. I downloaded the hu-HU package on
C:\lp.cab
. You have to change the path and language shorthand to your own -
After the download completes, open a command line prompt as administrator and type
DISM /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\lp.cab bcdedit /set {current} locale hu-HU bcdboot %WinDir% /l hu-HU
-
Open regedit.exe and delete the
en-EN
key underHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM / CurrentControlSet / Control / MUI / UILanguages
- Reboot
