  Hey Buddy

  Unfortunately, this is not possible.
  It s a Portuguese Vista OS preinstalled and you cannot change the language.
  If you want to use an English Vista the you must buy an original Vista operating system in the English language.

  If you want to use the Vista Enterprise and Ultimate for Vista, then you can download a Pack of MUI (MUI).
  But as a Home Premium user, you can use the interface (MUI).

• How to change the language of Windows in Windows Vista?

  I am trying to print something in black & white. I went to the print page to change the color. Language changed from English to French (or Italian?). I've never changed the language & worry how it changed. How can I change it back to English?

  Hello

  Please try to change the language of the document, and then try to print the document in the appropriate language.  If the document has been changed to the language proper, but it is still printing in English, please inform me accordingly.  If you are unable to change the language, please check the version of Windows Vista that you are running.  Also, if you would please check the type of document (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Adobe PDF).  In Word, there should be an option of translation to translate the language to the language of your choice.  If you please you would follow with me at your convenience, I would be very apprecite it.

  If that's the word, simply highlight the police and the content of the document and right click.  There should be an option called translate.  Click on this option.  Select the appropriate language and insert text.  It will then replace the previous text with text of your choice.

  -Create an another user account and check if you still experience this issue.

• How to change the language of Windows XP from German to English

  original title: German English XP Windows XP license key

  Hello.. I would like to change the language of my Windows XP from German to English.  Is this legal possible to format my system and borrow an English version of Windows XP and install and enter the license included with the German version key?

  Hi, Soorajr,

  Never borrow from another CD.  It is called facelift soft and illegal.

  The goal of Product Activation is to reduce a form of piracy known as "casual copying" or "softlifting." Casual copying is the sharing of software between people in a way that violates the end user of the software (EULA) license agreement. An example of casual copying is if someone were to get a copy of Microsoft Office XP and load it on his PC, then share it with another person who charged on her PC, then share it with a third person who charged on his PC and so on. This form of piracy is widespread and has been estimated by some industry trade groups to explain a staggering 50 percent of the economic losses due to piracy. Worldwide, the piracy rate is estimated at 37 percent; in other words, one in every three software products on the market is hacked.

  As far as I know that it is no longer possible.
  If you have selected the language, you will need to use the language that was chosen originally.

  I not quite sure of this workaround, but check if this m:
  -create a recovery disk (using the software creator on the laptop recovery disk)
  -use the recovery disk to reinstall new OS
  -Check if it would be possible to change the language.

• Change the language of Windows XP from the French into English

  Hello world!

  Here, my concern is that I don't want my Windows XP 'French' in an 'English '. In fact, I'll give my laptop a Nepalese friend, and he can't read the French.

  Thank you very much for your help!

  Hey,.

  The problem is that there is no switch to change the language. You can change the layout of the keyboard, but not the language of Windwos himself. In this case, you must do a clean and new Windows installation using the installation disc.

  I put t know what laptop you have exactly, but all the drivers and tools for your Toshiba laptop, you can find on the homepage of Toshiba.

  By the way: If you install XP, I would recommend Service Pack 3. It contains important security updates.

• How to change the language of windows 8 pro homescreen?

  in fact my friend bought a new notebook in which he has installed windows 8 pro assistance from the manufacturer of the laptop service center but its home screen is in hindi (Indian language), he wants change in English but it is not possible, he also tried to sign--> language and the clock settings, but not use. Please help!

  Hi,.

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

  I understand the inconvenience caused to your friend and I will definitely help you.

  According to the description of the problem, it seems that you have problems with changing the language of the home screen.

  1. press WIN + R to launch the dialog box RUN. Type regedit and press ENTER. It will open the registry editor.

  2 now go to the following key:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SystemProtectedUserData

  3 under "SystemProtectedUserData" key, you will see a key with the name similar to S-1-5-21-x-x-x-x. Under this key, go to:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SystemProtectedUserData\S-1-5-21-x-x-x-x\AnyoneRead\LocaleInfo

  4 key 'LocaleInfo' is that we need to change the format of date and time screen locking. This key contains all the required information has been stored in the INI file in Windows 8 test versions.

  5 click the 'LocaleInfo' key and in the right pane, you will see strings such as:

  • Calendar
  • Clock
  • GeographicRegion
  • Language
  • Nomlocale
  • NativeDigits
  • SubstitutionMode
  • TimeFormat

  

  6 we will play with only the following strings:

  • Language
  • Nomlocale
  • TimeFormat

  You may need to take ownership of the registry key before you edit it. Please consult this guide to learn how to take ownership of a registry key.

  7 first talk time format. If your Windows 8 lock screen shows the time in 24-hour format, the string "TimeFormat" in your base of registry Windows 8 could be defined to hh: mm tt. Change it to hh: mm tt and it'll start showing the time in 12-hour format.

  

  Same principle applies to the 12-hour format. If your Windows 8 lock screen shows the time in 12-hour format, the string "TimeFormat" could be defined to hh: mm tt in your system. Change it to hh: mm tt and it'll start showing the time in 24-hour format.

  8 now turn of display language. If you want to display the name of the day and the date in another language on the lock screen, you can change the values of the nomlocale and channels of language to your language code of your choice.

  For example, if you want to display information in the Hindi language, change the nomlocale string values and the language on the screen - IN and lock will begin showing the name of the day and date in Hindi language.

  

  You can use any language code such as en-US for English, en - us for German, en - US for the French, ru - RU, Russia, etc.

  Here are a few screenshots of Windows 8 lock screen showing the name of the day and date in various languages:
