Microsoft Windows Language Pack Types

Some Windows users may find that some parts of their operating system interface do not display in desired language after installing language pack. That’s because Microsoft provides 3 types of language pack:

  • Fully localized language pack: It contains 100 percent of the resources for a language and locale.
  • Partially localized language pack: It contains 100 percent of the resources for a language and locale, but not all of the resources are localized in the language pack
  • Language Interface Pack (LIP): A partially localized language pack that includes less than 100 percent of the localized resources. LIPs can be installed only on top of a fully localized language pack.

For end users, what we can do is installing language interface pack, which is partially localized for some languages. This explains why you might install a Portuguese language pack, but still get some parts display in English after a reboot. See diagrams for details here.
