The following tables show the supported language packs and language interface packs (LIPs) available with Windows® 7 and Windows Server® 2008 R2.
Corporations and end users can download LIPs from the Microsoft.com Web site and add them to any genuine copy of Windows that has the supported parent language installed. For more information or to download a LIP, see Local Language Program.
LIPs must be installed to the operating system that they support. Windows 7 LIPs cannot be used on Windows Vista®; similarly, Windows Vista LIPs cannot be used on Windows 7.
|
Caution: |
|
Not all LIPs are currently available for Windows 7. For information about the latest available LIPs, see the Local Language Program. |
OEMs and system builders with Microsoft Software License Terms can get the LIPs from the Microsoft OEM site and OEM Partner Center.
|
Note: |
|
For a complete list of supported languages and locales, see Locale Identifier Constants and Strings. |
