    Note that as of 2016 language packs for Office 2010 are discontinued so you have to make due with the languages available in the list for selection. In my case I am f@cked because I only have German there and I want English. Thank you MS…

    My powerpoint is stuck in Russian, where as my Excel, Word, and Project are in English. I have set English as the default but it continues to display in Russian. Is there a fix to this?

    I downloaded Microsoft Office 2010 but during the installation process it switched everything into Spanish. How do I proceed to switch it back to operate in English?

    I successfully installed Arabic language pack and can switch to a completely Arabic toolbar. However, when I switch back to English toolbar, in Word the text alignment remains right by default in any new document. I can change it with the alignment button to left alignment, and type english normally, except when I want to use a bulet point; any text I type will be placed to the left of the bullet point (and this can be seen in the bullet point icon itself which shows it as right aligned). How can I solve this?

    I have Office 2010 with a license.Office is in Romanian and i want to change it in English.
    I have installed english language pack, installed it and nothing happened.I have also Windows 7 in English.All the languages are set to English in Office, keyboards, zone , region, all things are in english. But the office is still in Romanian.

    Maybe tis is thhe cause because we bought office with a license and it is blocked by the guys that sold the Office pack, other explanation i can’t find.

    Cheers !

    the greed and complexity of getting any answers to any questions from MS makes you want to switch to Apple.

    Aftert 27 yeares with MS, I am out of there.

    The help language is stuck in Spanish. I have tried these instructions and then did it again and rebooted the entire computer. The help language still did not change even though the default says it has been set to English.

    I downloaded and installed the french language pack. The only thing i can do is add french to the change editing language window. I can’t change the display language.

    It won’t let me uninstall or reinstall the language pack. I don’t want to reinstall office because i live in Canada and we have expansive and very metered internet bandwidth. Downloading all the updates AGAIN will waste a lot of my monthly bandwidth.

    What should i do?
