French to English Movie Maker (HELP) How to change lang

by ParisDavid Jul 6, 2009 6:46PM PDT

Apologize if silly but bought (in France, as I now live here) Vista Movie Maker (Windows media Center) and would like to change its op language to English. Is this possible? If not can one download an English version w/out messing up the already installed (less than helpful French)version?

Or do I need to bite the bullet and toss the whole French Office Package and buy an English one as there apperas to be no English Lang pack?

Thx In Advance
David

Two things...

by John.Wilkinson Jul 6, 2009 11:52PM PDT

1.) Windows Vista Movie Maker and Media Center are not offered as standalone applications--they're part of Windows Vista Home Premium and Ultimate.

2.) Windows Movie Maker has been replaced by Windows Live Movie Maker, a free download available in the language of your choice. It is, however, a beta with some missing features compared to the previous version.

Hope this helps,
John

Frankly?

The hours spent doing this would have me selling this one to offset the cost of the copy I really wanted.
