Windows Defender - Language

[Guest]

I'm living in Spain and recently downloaded WD to find that the language used
is Spanish. This is OK for me but not so easy for my wife.
Can I alter the current language configured and if so how or do I need to
download an English version?

Hello Dave J,

Assuming your system is XP, clean and stable.

Whatever you do, (installing and updateting or unistalling) always as a
administrator.

Make a restore pointing.

Exit WD

Unistall WD (Spanish)

Reboot

Run Ccleaner. Better if is run in safe mode.

Ccleaner - http://www.ccleaner.com
http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbuilds.asp
There are 3 builds available.
1.- Standard Build also includes the Yahoo Toolbar but that can be
UNcheckmarked during the installation if you so desire.
2.- Basic does NOT include the Toolbar
3.- Slim also does NOT include the Toolbar and is English only.
Note, When you install Ccleaner, UNCHECK the Yahoo toolbar option.
Note, in Options, Advanced, UNCHECK - Only delete files in Windows folders
older than 48 hours.
Note: UNCHECK in Applications, the box for Utilities.

Do a scan with all the check marks on.
Open Ccleaner and press "Windows" "Aplications" and Run Cleaner from the
menu choose 'Issues' and then press scan for issues, Repair any fºund.

NOTE - The first time you run CCleaner's Issues scanner you'll have to keep
running it back-to-back until it finds nothing. One scenario is a registry
key may only be a reference pointing to a completely different location in
the registry and when it's removed then that reference link is also noticed
as being invalid on a subsequent scan. It's generally a good idea to keep
running the Issues scan until nothing is listed.

Reboot

I'd recommend re-downloading WD, and saving to a known location--like the
desktop.

After the download is complete, disable real-time protection by your
antivirus for long enough to do the installation. please disable or turn off
as much other software that always runs as you can--real time antivirus
scanning, any other antispyware software, (Stop all programs that are open in
the bottom taskbar) etc.

I hope this post is helpful, let us know how it works ºut.
