Change display language in Windows 8 CPP from Chinese into English

I bought a Lenovo Yoga13 China Amazon. If the inscription says that it is just Windows 8, he did PRC 8 Windows. I knew it will come Chinese, so I read a little on the conversion of language who assured me that it was something simple by using Control Panel. And so I bought Yoga. I learn that the RPC Windows 8 is an exception the hard way. Normal language, process of change does not work as drive option is not available for English. Any idea what my options are? I just want to try to change it before I return it.

Kind regards

Thank you, Mary Therese K.

I saw all the links. The conclusion I came up with is that Windows 8 Chinese (the Chinese Windows 8 core) is deliberately limited to the Chinese. I think that, given the issues of piracy, it makes sense for the Member States.

So I just bought the Win8 Pro and installed/updated. I was then able to change the display language to English.

After all this, I fell on a an article that mentions the Chinese version of Win8 is the "SPECIAL" version Which explains the problem to meet.

Kind regards

    If you have Windows 7 ultimate installed, will offer a series of language packs for Windows 7. Install the English pack and switch.

    If this is not ultimate, you might be able to contact Dell and get the English version of any edition had the laptop. I would not be surprised if they charged a fee for this.

  • How can I change my OS to windows 7 from Chinese into English

    Hello

    My name is Martin. How can I change my OS to windows 7 from Chinese into English.

    Thank you

    If you have the version of Windows 7 Ultimate, you have the Multilanguage functionality, you can use.  But it was only with the Ultimate version.  Otherwise, you will need to download the desired version and then reinstall Windows.  You can download the ISO files from

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/ and burn it to a DVD.  Be sure to obtain device drivers, you will need before you reinstall it.

    Good luck.

  • ThinkPad t440p - how to change the language of "Thinkvantage System Update" from Japanese to English?

    Goodday

    Is - it possible to change the installed language on "Thinkvantage System Update" from Japanese to English?

    Thank you! \m/

    I think that something about configuration is left behind after uninstalling the existing version. I would try this:

    New update uninstall in Control Panel.
    Restart the PC.

    Then go into the folders SWTools, Program Files, Program Files (x 86) and the program data. Look for folders named "Lenovo" and related to the update system subfolders. You are looking for stuff that was left of the uninstall. Delete the subfolders.

    Note, deleting stuff in the program data will probably take place in the system update, when you then run it, showing you all the stuff you've already seen and chosen to hide. The storage folder it is the record of all the things that the program sought on the Lenovo download site. So you'll have to decide again on all lists.

    Once you have removed the remains, did not hurt to reboot once again and then go to the support page for the United States and the download system update it. Run the executable file and hope that it asks you the preferred language. See what's happening.

    Good luck.

    WARNING: I'm just here improvise with that. The steps above are what I'd do.

    There could also be that something flying in the Windows registry that is not removed, in which case you will have to search for it, too, but who knows how they are appointed. I don't.

    Finally, you can always reinstall Windows and then load only these desired Lenovo applications. You can install the update system by itself - I do that - and not as a part of the whole of the suite of ThinkVantage tools and all that much more. I'm sure a reinstall of Windows and the applications manually should solve your problem, but it's a bit of work to do.

This will help enter you commands and text in languages other than Spanish, making it easier to use the operating system in your native language.

    (a) click on 'start '. Select the "Control Panel", and then open the section ' Date, time, language and Regional Options ".

    (b) click on the button "Add other languages", click the "Languages" tab and then click on the button "Details".

    (c) change the setting from "Default input language" in English, and then click the OK"" button.

    (d) computer and changing the settings is applied to the computer.

    Please SEND THIS If POSSIBLE to BILL GATES AND ALL OTHER MICROSOFT GURU OR MANAGER WHO CARES REALLY BRING of BILLION OF DOLLARS EXTRA to MICROSOFT OF the STRANGER.  OR AT LEAST SEND TO ANYONE WHO CARES MORE TO THE SUCCESS OF MICROSOFT AND THE FUTURE.
    My question to which I have still not got an answer was; If "Windows 7 Ultimate" has a button by which we could change the display language for windows with a single click in the computer. To change this through many steps are not an option for billions of nonEnglish speakers who doesn't understand enough about how to do these steps, so they decide that it is not worth to buy Windows in a foreing language to them, so they use just illegal free or cheep Windows copy from one computer to the other. They prefer windows in English, but only at certain times to have display in English and to be able to go to their native language at will. We want a button click on change of English in any foreign language major, on and before each time that decide us or want to change.
    Many steps in trying to change the display language is not an option. I am an English speaker fluent, but I like both French and Spanish. I have XP, but for me it is better to buy the Windows7Ultimate if he proposes a change to the language screen button click in windows. IT IS NOT AT ALL FOR ME TO BUY WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE IF I Y GO EVERY TIME THROUGH THE PROCESS ENTIRE HEADACHE TO UNINSTALL ALL MY PROGRAMS AND WIDOWS AND INSTALL AGAIN JUST TO HAVE THE DISPLAY OF THE LANGUAGE I WANT AT ANY TIME I WANT.    BILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON EARTH DESIRES TO PASS ENGLISH LANGUAGE MORE THE WORLD AND THEIR OWN LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND BETTER, TO SWITCH YOU AS MANY TIMES AS YOU NEED OR WANT IT, EVERY DAY WHEN DOES.
    It is not practical for us, nor possible because we do not have the time to uninstall windows or a 5 times language pack, or 6 or 7 times a day just so that we could switch between English and French or Spanish or Chinese-Mandarin Hindu SEVEN times per day that we might need. WE WANT to SWITCH BETWEEN WINDOWS DISPLAY LANGUAGE ENGLISH AND ALL OTHER MAIN FOREIGN LANGUAGE 100 TIMES a DAY IF WE FEEL WITH THE CLICK OF A button I LOVE and no one should stop us to do, and I mean that WE SHOULD HAVE THAT OPTION of BEING ABLE to DO so, BUT I'M NOT aware THAT WE DO.
    SO please LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE the OPTION with the HELP of THE OTHERWISE ULTIMATE de WINDOWS 7 IT does IS NOT INTERESTING for me to buy Windows7Ultimate since Windows XP, it's still as good or better.    About 5 billion people on earth or more do not speak English a lot understand enough - well BUT they would like to (and I will) to switch between the English and their (or my) native language in the display of Windows, several times per day whenever we want.
    Have we THAT the OPTION TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE in WINDOWS WITH a SINGLE CLICK of a BUTTON AVAILABLE IN Windows7Ultimate OR NOT?


    That's what I need to know, but no one answered my question so far.  Don't give me more than a link to a web page where I could buy or download a language pack that I would have to install and uninstall 10 times a day if I want to change from English to Spanish or the French and return in English and Spanish, and so on 10 times a day.  This process is stupid and a waste of time and it is not difficult, if not impossible for most of us (of the billion of us). WE NEED AND WE WANT TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE IN WINDOWS WITH A SINGLE CLICK OF A BUTTON AS MANY TIMES WE WANT EVERY DAY.  IF I PAY MICROSOFT A LOT OF MONEY IT SHOULD AT LEAST BE WORTHED.
    SO GIVE US WHAT WE WANT. ABOUT 5 BILLION OF US SPEAK NOT ENGLISH FAIRLY WELL, EVEN IF WE WISH TO PASS ENGLISH AND OUR LANGUAGES KINDERGARTEN ON, BEHIND 10 OR 20 OR 100 TIMES A DAY, AS WE CAN HAVE THE NEED OF THE DO.  We cannot simply install and uninstall some language pack 10, 20 or 100 times a day else we will not be able to do anything except waste our valuable time.  SO GIVE US WANT WE WANT.
    PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE US.
    PEOPLE IGNORED USES PIRATE WINDOWS WINDOWS TOOK A COPY AND DISSEMINATE OR INSTALLED IN HUNDREEDS OF THOUSANDS OF COMPUTERS. It's in your best interest, not to ignore the poor who are familiar with the English people or foreigners, who believes that if they can't buy the windows with this option (to BE ABLE to SWITCH THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE BETWEEN ENGLISH AND THEIR OWN NATIVE WINDOWS WITH THE click OF A BUTTON AS MANY TIMES as THEY WISH every DAY) , then it is not worth to buy it at all, but not worth it from one computer to the other side even if it is illegal.  This is the case today in most of the countries of the Earth. There are more illegal copies of Windows 98 and 2000 in use abroad as any copy of Windows abroad, for this reason = IT does IS NOT WORTH the MONEY WITHOUT THE SWITCHING "ONE click" of ENGLISH FOR FOREIGNERS AND BACK AND FORTH.
    You want to address this problem through the introduction of Windows 7 Ultimate, where you can change the language with the click of a button and worth to have the original of these windows, not you?
    -I would like to personally, otherwise I won't be wasting my time of Magor write you about the need to switch Windows language display to be made possible by a click of a button.
    IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT BILLIONS OF PEOPLE OVERSEAS WITH SUCH NEED AND DESIRE, THEN AT LEAST TO RESPOND TO A FEW HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF FANS OF MULTI LINGUIST OR - SPEAKERS MULTILINGUAL; AND DO YOUR MATH BY MULTIPLYING THIS NUMBER WITH $250 BY THE NEW COPY OF WINDOWS SOLD. (IT HAS TO DO WITH BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN ANNUAL PROFITS). THIS MUST SURELY BE A VERY NICE HIKE IN PROFIT AND IN THE SHARES OF MICROSOFT.  BUT IF YOU WANT TO BE A LOSER OR A SABOTEUR FROM MICROSOFT, THEN GO AHEAD, CONTINUE TO IGNORE THE UNITED STATES AND OUR NEED. MANY OF MY FRIENDS BELIEVES THAT MICROSOFT MINDS AS CLEAR AS THEY ARE, don't ARE STILL NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH to MAKE POSSIBLE TEL NEED AVAILABLE - that is to say: to make possible the switch of the Windows display language from English to another major foreign language with a simple click on a button for us to be able to do is as many times a day as you could want.
    I tell my friends that they are wrong and that you can sell these windows.
    My second question is: ARE they HAVE RIGHT?  OR AM I RIGHT?   WHATEVER THEY ARE, JUST PLEASE GIVE ME ANSWERS TO MY QUESTIONS AND DID NOT GIVE ME ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS I NEVER ASKED. PLEASE, I BEG YOU.
    AND THIS MESSAGE IN ITS ENTIRETY TO BILL GATES (IF POSSIBLE) OR FOR CERTAIN EXECUTIVES OF MICROSOFT RESPONSIBLE AND WISE MAN WHO COULD AND ADDRESSES THESE ISSUES.   IF YOU WANT OUR MONEY OUTSIDE CANADA, PARTICULARLY OUR EUROS, THEN TO GIVE US WHAT WE WANT.
    A FRIEND far AWAY WHO JUST SEE WHAT I AM WRITING TO YOU, SAID: "IF THEY are not, THEN THE _ WITH ALL THEIR NEW WINDOWS BECAUSE WE're NOT GOING to BUY EVERYTHING FOR THE NEXT YEARS of 1O if IL VA y BEING MORE UPDATES OF OUR XP is or NOT."
    About me... maybe I'll stick with my XP for ten years but I could probably use it for the next seven years UNLESS I could buy a copy of the window earlier that allows the windows display language can be maneuvered with a single click of a button between English and French and in Spanish as many times as I wish every day and will without wasting my time to install and uninstall packages of language or reinstall the windows and all other programs I have installed in my computer again and again.
    Well, I hope you could help me with some concrete answers to my questions and good advice about this. IF you do not have available answers to our needs in the "Windows 7 Ultimate" then we should just waith for the next Windows coming after 7 Ultimate WITH the HOPE that you will take care of the major needs in the Windows thereafter, that follows after Windows 7 Ultimate.  Thank you for your time and I'LL WAIT for a RESPONSE FROM YOU.

    Hello danobadiah,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    I merged your nine positions in your last message as they treat everyone the same questions. You had your questions answered several different people in order to help answer your question. The answer to your question, "Windows 7" has a button by which we could change with a single click, the display of the windows in the computer language is 'no '. There's not a single button to make such a change in the display language in the way you described. Persons responding gave you the common way to the Windows 7 operating system works by changing from English to another language. We are not the developers in this forum and do not know if your desire to have a one button click on any major foreign language switch from English is a possibility.

    This is not the right forum to ask your question on a design change. If you want to offer developers a way to change the Windows 7 operating system, and then publish the Web site so that you can give your comments in future versions of the operating system.
