View Full Version : Changing MUI Language without Logging Off


February 7th 06, 06:50 AM
Hi all
Does anyone know if it's possible to switch the Windows GUI language
(menu items etc) without having to log off and on again?
With the International MUI pack installed, I can successfully change
the menu languages by choosing the required language under Regional
Settings, however this requires a logoff / logon.

Is there a way to simply change some registry entries and/or copy some
of the MUI resource files while logged on in order to achieve this?

Kind Regards
James.

No. You must log-off and then logon again.
