[ Englishize Cmd v2.0 ]
http://tech.wandersick.com | [email protected]
[ What? ]
. Toggles between English and non-English for most Windows commands.
. For English system admins who manages Windows PCs of other languages.
. No need to log off; settings are applied immediately.
. Comes with a restorer too. Apply or restore is as simple as a click
or typing 'EnglishizeCmd' and 'RestoreCmd' commands
. Better character compatibility than changing DOS codepage.
. Many languages and executables are supported. Customizable.
. Administrator rights are required. It asks for rights to elevates itself.
Does not elevate over network mapped drives however.
. Parameter /quiet can be used to suppress confirmation messages for
unattended usage. (Only works when existing Command Prompt is run elevated)
. Supports from Windows Vista/7 to 10 (or Windows Server 2008 to 2019)
. Portable by default. Optional installer enables 'EnglishizeCmd' and
'RestoreCmd' commands globally (in Command Prompt and Run prompt. For
PowerShell, the commands would be 'EnglishizeCmd.bat' and 'RestoreCmd.bat')
[ Instructions ]
1. "EnglishizeCmd.bat" for changing command line tools from non-English to
English.
2. "RestoreCmd.bat" to restore everything back to the original language.
3. "_lang_codes.txt" is a modifiable list containing all non-English language
codes. It includes most languages but in case your language is not there,
add it and "Englishize Cmd" will support it.
4. "_files_to_process.txt" is a modifiable list of file names of command-line
executables that will be affected in the change. All commands in Windows
Vista and 7 should be covered (although it contains much more commands
than there actually are, it doesn't matter because it has no effect on
commands that don't exist.)
If you decide some commands are better left localized rather than being
changed to English, remove them from the list before running "Englishize.
bat".
Also, although the list covers command-line executables, you can add GUI
-- Graphical User Interface - programs such as Paint - mspaint.exe and
lots of others to "_files_to_process.txt". There is a limitation here
though. Windows comes with both English and non-English .mui files for
command-line programs only; by default .mui for GUI programs don't exist
in en-US folder until users install the English MUI through Windows
Update) or Vistalizator (for non-Ultimate/Enterprise Windows users).
