Impossible to install the language packs on Windows 8 or devices

There are some language packs that I can't install it on my devices to Surface. Among them, Swedish and Portuguese Brazilian will not install on ANY device (I tried four so far). It is certainly a question that I was able to install several language packs to other regional settings on ALL of the aforementioned devices. Why is this happening? After downloading the language pack in the settings of > Panel > language an error is produced by saying: the language pack could not be installed. Please address this at your nearest convenience as I am currently working on a critical project, and this seems to be common for users of many parameters regional/language packs more I search.

Thank you!

  • I read that AFTER installing a language pack in Windows 7, some updates must be re-installed. How do you know which?

    That is my question.  I just did a clean reinstall of windows 7 ultimate.

    Before I did the installation, I read that I should install language packs before much updates

    Because if a person installs language packs after the updates, the updates must be reinstalled.

    I tried to install the language packs first, but windows update wouldn't let me.

    So now I think that a lot of updates must be put back.

    I looked for a list or something, but found nothing.

    Can I simply rerun microsoft update?

    I have everyone here knows about it, I would be grateful for advice.

    It's a little tricky. One day that will put you in the position of being able to receive updates is KB3161608, but this one requires reinstallation after installation of the packs of languange. :/

    Since you will need it anyway, in this case again twice, here is the link:

    You will need it as a sine qua non:

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3020369

    requiring him also a reinstall after installing a language pack. :/

    Windows Update won't let you even manually install until you set automatic updates 'Never find updates' and restart, if her search runs in the background.

  • Korean version of Windows XP Home Edition, need to install the language English for Windows

    I tried all methods to install English through regional options, install the update patch and also installing Microsoft Desktop language settings change. None of this works and there seems to be no English language pack and MUI is only for Windows XP Professional not personal.

    I went and changed the menus of the tab Advanced English-United States and the regional tab. Is that all I can install it. In addition the tab details and the English set as default language. Yet all my Windows apps and windows are Korean.

    What can I do?

    I'm sorry, but as you know the MUI is only for XP Pro. You will need to either buy XP Home in English and do a clean install or upgrade to XP Pro Korean and get the language packs. (You cannot spend the Korean House in English Pro.) MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Cannot download the language packs on Windows 7 Ultimate.

    I got a computer with Windows 7 Ultimate so I could download the language packs, but I can't seem to bring with it no more.  The directions say to go to Windows Update, I did and that would be a statement in there about it.  There was no instructions, so I downloaded every update available.  Still no statement.  What I am doing wrong?  Thank you.

    Thank you.  I had already done all that.  In fact, several times.  However, I repeated again and then rebooted the computer and repeated once again.  This time, Windows Update found more than updated.  After that, he continued to find updates whenever I want to install some and reboot until it finds another 49 updates more.  These updates included language packs.

    Thanks for me direction in the right direction.  I guess I'm just not patient enough.

  • I can not install the language packs on my Windows 8 Pro, a license in this language help me?

    My computer came with Windows 7 installed, but when my hard drive broke, repairing computer of our school it is replaced with a new hard drive and an illegal copy of Windows 7 Ultimate in Chinese with a language pack English. My new school, Peking University, provides a free legal copy of Windows 8 in English and Chinese, so I tried to upgrade to the English version. I could not switch to another language, so I checked here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2607607/en-us to see that all versions of Windows supports language packs and the Chinese version.

    However, in the Control Panel, it says something like "cannot use language packs. What is the best way to do my Windows work in English? I could also just install a new version of french Windows 8 with license from my school, but it would be a shame to have to back up files and settings and reinstall all my software.

    I found a download link of the Pack of language and installed by running the lpkinstall command. Now it's working. Was probably easier than having to reinstall everything using the English license :-)

  • Satellite P750: Impossible to install the Bluetooth Stack on Windows 7 (x 64) driver

    Hello.

    I own a * Satellite P750-02 t * (part No. * PSAY3A - T 02 001 *).

    In the order I did:

    (1) I formatted the HARD drive and reinstalled the operating system of * Windows 7 x 64 Ultimate SP1 *.

    Then I downloaded * ONLY the BIOS and drivers * of [his downloads page | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p750/psay3a-02t001/download?os=25]:

    (2) I've updated the BIOS for * v1.90* (the laptop came with v1.80)

    (3) I have installed all drivers:
    -LAN and WiFi
    -Chipset Intel latest (available)
    -all video drivers (NVIDIA Graphics, Intel HD Graphics and Intel HDMI)
    -Card reader
    -Realtek HD Audio (later)
    -Synaptics Touchpad
    -USB3.0
    -IR
    TV tuner
    However, I * cannot install Bluetooth driver (v8.00.06 (T) *)...

    When I run the installation program of the [aforementioned page | http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p750/psay3a-02t001/download?os=25] it detects partially *'Bluetooth USB Controller-10 TOSHIBA'* (USB\VID_0930 & PID_0215 & REV_001)
    and then the installation freezes simply displaying + "install the Bluetooth driver. Please wait +.' and stay like that forever...

    I also tried to download a driver [another location | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=download-toshiba] for laptops TOSHIBA - v8.00.02 (T):
    and followed installation instructions displayed under "Details".
    but he had the same result: the installer simply crashes...

    Install fix (* KB978258 *) recommended it did not work either - the message "+ update is not applicable to your computer +" appears.
    And I understand why - this fix is [already included: http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/B/A/EBA55FE2-373A-4351-9346-6D762B79AA69/Updates%20in%20Win7%20and%20WS08R2%20SP1.xls] in Service Pack 1 for MS Windows 7.

    I spent hours searching the Internet for a solution. Although there are some similar cases, none of the recommendations actually worked. I tried to install:
    -WiFi driver before installing the Bluetooth (someone suggested that these two are parts of the same card);
    -Repeat Mode Setup without failure;
    -* Toshiba value added package * hoping that somehow these tools will kick in.
    Nothing has worked...

    It is interesting to note that when, in the interests of experimentation, I tried to run installation for my generic Bluetooth adapter (using the driver [for non-TOSHIBA notebooks | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=download]) then everything runs smoothly!

    * Using connection Bluetooth on this laptop is absolutely crucial for TI
    I hope that I won't get back this beautiful laptop as I know that TOSHIBA is one of the best manufacturers and I am sure, that there is a solution to this problem.

    Thank you very much.
    Evgeny.

    You can use the key combination FN + F8 to toggle WLAN?
    You can also see BT symbol there?

    Before you begin installation battery BT try to activate BT module by using the FN + F8 key combination.

    Generally avoid some problem with it. Toshiba BT stack is tested on al models proposed by Toshiba and fireplace installation BT has, in my view, nothing to see what version of Win7 you use.

    Do not return this laptop. It has to do is just install drivers, tools and utilities. Please note: BT stack is included in the recovery image so BT must work.

    Also, I must say that OS installation of drivers, tools and utilities on Toshiba laptop must / should be installed in the correct order. Many tools can work only and must be installed on basic stuff that can be installed with other specific tools of Toshiba.

    Please send a few comments if this FN + F8 will work.
