Note that: Your PC must be connected to the
internet, to download the language packs
Administrator rights are required to install a
language pack.
If you install many additional language packs,
the disk space and system performance are
affected. In particular, disk space and system
performance are affected during servicing
operations, such as Service Pack installations.
Therefore, we recommend that you only add a
language pack to your computer if you will use
the language pack.
Language packs also let multiple users who
share a computer select distinct display
languages. For example, one user can select to
see the dialog boxes, menus, and other text in
Japanese, whereas another user can select to
see the same content in French.
