Download languages for Windows

Get languages for Windows XP

You can download and install additional languages to view Windows XP menus, dialog boxes, and other user interface items in your preferred language. Additional languages will work only with a genuine copy of Windows.

Language Interface Packs (LIPs), which provide a translated version of the most widely used dialog boxes, menu items, and help content, can be installed over any edition of Windows XP. You can download Language Interface Packs from the Microsoft Download Center by using the links below. To install one, you will need to have the required parent language installed on your PC. Learn more about Windows XP.

Note: Language packs for Windows 7 and Windows Vista are also available. To use Microsoft Office in your preferred language, you can download an Office Language Interface Pack.
