How to add language pack for Windows 8 Customer Preview and Windows Server 8 Beta

If you want to install a language pack on Windows 8 or Windows Server 8, you will be able to find that you can’t install it easily like what you did on a Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.

So I will show you the way to install language pack on Windows 8 or Windows Server 8.

1. Proceed to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Language. See the following screenshot, as it's a English based system, so English is showed "Windows display language: Enabled".












2. Click "Add a language" you want. For example, Simplified Chinese. See the following screenshot, you will not be able to find "Windows display language: Enabled" behind Simplified Chinese. If you click the Option behind it, you will be able to find the description "Connect to Internet to check for language packs".











3. Download the language pack. Open c:\windows\system32\lpksetup.exe, now you can install the language pack as you did on Windows 7.
4. Reboot the computer when the language pack installation finished.
5. Proceed to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Language. You will be able to find the "Windows display language: Available" under Simplified Chinese.














6. Click the option behind it and click the "Make this the primary language". Now you will be able to find Simplified Chinese has been moved to the top of the window.










7. Sign out and login to the system, you will be able to use the language you want.
