SOLUTION FOR VERY IMPORTANT NOTE!

Go to regedit=>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlMUIUILanguages

And then delete the language, which you’ve unistalled through windows. The language after deleting will disappear in Vistalizator, and you can now install it again.

if the system language isn’t english, and i would like to change it to english and then delete the default system language, what can i do?

thanks for the information. I have faced a bigger problem. I uninstalled the languages as you explained. while uninstalling,my hard drive C started being occupied more. while you uninstall , normally you have more free space. but now it is completely the opposite. why??????

While deleting them my storage gets bigger and then when i reset my pc it lowers the storage gigsbytes. Is that a problem???

I’m not sure I understand your problem. Can you please be more descriptive and clear?

That’s fine, but pressing uninstall only shows English as a display language. Yet there are many dozens of other language files still under system32. How do I get rid of these storage wasters?

Same issue here on my Win7 machine.
LPKSetup.exe only ‘sees’ the English language but my Windows Folder (& the folders within) are peppered with thousands of folders & files (like zh-cn).
LPKSetup.exe seems to be useless unless I want to install languages.

Thank you for this tip, a corrupted language pack kept trying to install and I needed to remove it.

Thanks man it worked (:

In my windows 7 System32 folder I have dozens of folders for languages I do not need, e.g. zh-CN, zh-HK, zh-TW for Chinese.
When I use the lpksetup.exe it only shows me the language which I actually need, no others.
Can I just delete the folders of those Chinese etc. things ?

Doesn’t work for me.
In settings, under “Windows display language” (as well as in the system tray language switcher) I have 2 languages: English (United States) and English (United Kingdom). And under language packs, I only have one pack: English (United States).
Running Get-WinUserLanguageList only gives me en-US. I can’t find any way to remove English (United Kingdom)

This means your Windows was made for the UK market and the language is part of the core OS. You won’t be able to remove the UK language.
