Uninstall Language Pack

So I decided tonight to uninstall my spectacular Ultimate Extra Language
Packs so I could install SP1... and what a shock. Am I missing something here
or are you limited to just removing 1 Language at a time... taking 30+
minutes from start to finish... never mind that fact that you can select all
of the languages you want to remove.

Is this by design? Anyone else run into this issue?

Is this Microsoft Office Language Pack 2007 language packs you are talking
about here? I have the German one installed, and I am not about to remove
it so I can install some SP1 thingy.

btw, I live in a place called Silverton, http://silvertoncolorado.com

Cheers,

Earle

I have the EXACT same problem. After I mark all the languages to be removed,
it goes through them which takes FOREVER and at the end lets me know that the
1st one one the list was removed successfully, the rest failed. If it's by
design, why can I choose multiple languages in the wizard to uninstall?

No, these are the Language Packs those of us who purchased Vista Ultimate are
rewarded with as Extras (hope the sarcasm is coming through there). There are
something like 30 of them total, but when they started installing I was able
to keep all but 13 or so off my PC (smallest that installed was 0.6 GB,
Largest was >0.8 GB... that's a ton for a Notebook).

That is exactly what I am experiencing... but let's not forget the 30+
minutes per language the whole process takes (Uninstall & Reboot).

So are you gonna wait until they release SP1 for all languages or spend the
time and remove the unnecessary language packs?
