在Vista或Windows 7中更改用户界面语言

Would you like to change the user interface language in any edition of Windows 7 or Vista on your computer?  Here’s a free app that can help you do this quickly and easily.

您想在计算机的任何版本的Windows 7或Vista中更改用户界面语言吗？ 这是一个免费的应用程序，可以帮助您快速轻松地完成此操作。

If your native language is not the one most spoken in your area, you’ve likely purchased a PC with Windows preinstalled with a language that is difficult or impossible for you to use.  Windows 7 and Vista Ultimate include the ability to install multiple user interface languages and switch between them. However, all other editions are stuck with the language they shipped with.  With the free Vistalizator app, you can add several different interface languages to any edition of Vista or Windows 7 and easily switch between them.

如果您的母语不是您所在地区使用最多的语言，则您可能已购买了一台预装Windows的PC，该Windows的语言难以使用或无法使用。 Windows 7和Vista Ultimate具有安装多种用户界面语言并在它们之间切换的功能。 但是，所有其他版本都使用其附带的语言。 借助免费的Vistalizator应用程序，您可以向任何版本的Vista或Windows 7添加几种不同的界面语言，并在它们之间轻松切换。

Note:  In this test, we used an US English copy of both Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows Vista Home Premium, and it works the same on any edition. The built-in language switching in the Ultimate Editions lets you set a user interface language for each user account, but this will only switch it for all users. 

注意：在此测试中，我们使用了Windows 7 Home Premium和Windows Vista Home Premium的美国英语版本，并且在任何版本上均相同。 Ultimate Editions中的内置语言切换功能可让您为每个用户帐户设置用户界面语言，但这只会为所有用户切换。

Add a User Interface Language to Windows

向Windows添加用户界面语言

To add an interface language to any edition of Windows 7 and Vista, first download Vistalizator (link below).  Then, from the same page, download the language pack of your choice.  The language packs are specific for each service pack of Windows, so make sure to choose the correct version and service pack you have installed.

要将界面语言添加到任何版本的Windows 7和Vista中，请首先下载Vistalizator( 下面的链接 )。 然后，从同一页面下载您选择的语言包。 语言包特定于Windows的每个Service Pack，因此请确保选择正确的版本和已安装的Service Pack。

Once the downloads are finished, launch the Vistalizator program. You do not need to install it; simply run it and you’re ready to go.  Click the Add languages button to add a language to Windows.

下载完成后，启动Vistalizator程序。 您不需要安装它。 只需运行它，就可以开始了。 单击添加语言按钮以向Windows添加语言。

Select the user interface language pack you downloaded, and click Open.

选择您下载的用户界面语言包，然后单击“打开”。

Depending on the language you selected, it may not automatically update with Windows Update when a service pack is released.  If so, you will have to remove the language pack and reinstall the new one for that service pack at that time.  Click Ok to continue.

根据您选择的语言，发布Service Pack时，它可能不会使用Windows Update自动更新。 如果是这样，您将必须删除语言包并在那时为该Service Pack重新安装新的语言包。 单击确定继续。

Make sure you’ve selected the correct language, and click Install language.

确保选择了正确的语言，然后单击“安装语言”。

Vistalizator will extract and install the language pack.  This took around 5 to 10 minutes in our test.

Vistalizator将解压缩并安装语言包。 在我们的测试中，这大约花费了5到10分钟。

Once the language pack is installed, click Yes to make it the default display language.

安装语言包后，单击“是”以将其设置为默认显示语言。

Now, you have two languages installed in Windows.  You may be prompted to check for updates to the language pack; if so, click Update languages and Vistalizator will automatically check for and install any updates.

现在，您已经在Windows中安装了两种语言。 可能会提示您检查语言包的更新。 如果是这样，请单击更新语言，Vistalizator将自动检查并安装所有更新。

When finished, exit Vistalizator to finish switching the language.  Click Yes to automatically reboot and apply the changes.

完成后，退出Vistalizator以完成语言切换。 单击“是”以自动重新引导并应用更改。

When you computer reboots, it will show your new language, which in our test is Thai.  Here’s our Windows 7 Home Premium machine with the Thai language pack installed and running.

重启计算机后，它将显示您的新语言，在我们的测试中为泰语。 这是已安装并正在运行泰语包的Windows 7 Home Premium机器。

You can even add a right to left language, such as Arabic, to Windows.  Simply repeat the steps to add another language pack. 

您甚至可以在Windows中添加从右到左的语言，例如阿拉伯语。 只需重复这些步骤即可添加另一种语言包。

Vistalizator was originally designed for Windows Vista, and works great with Windows 7 too.  The language packs for Vista are larger downloads than their Windows 7 counterparts.  Here’s our Vista Home Premium in English…

Vistalizator最初是为Windows Vista设计的，并且也与Windows 7兼容。 与Windows 7相比，Vista的语言包下载量更大。 这是我们的英文版Vista Home Premium…

And here’s how it looks after installing the Simplified Chinese language pack with Vistalizator.

Revert to Your Original Language

还原为原始语言

If you wish to return to the language that your computer shipped with, or want to switch to another language you’ve installed, run Vistalizator again.  Select the language you wish to use, and click Change language.  

如果您希望返回到计算机附带的语言，或者想切换到已安装的另一种语言，请再次运行Vistalizator。 选择您要使用的语言，然后单击“更改语言”。

When you close Vistalizator, you will again be asked to reboot.  Once you’ve rebooted, you’ll see your new (or original) language ready to use.  Here’s our Windows 7 Home Premium desktop, back in it’s original English interface.

关闭Vistalizator时，系统将再次要求您重新启动。 重新启动后，您将看到可以使用的新(或原始)语言。 这是我们的Windows 7 Home Premium桌面，它具有原始的英文界面。
