Windows 10: Office 2016 UI Language change: can't install exe pack

I've purchased 2016 office in Polish and tried to make English the default UI language. Downloaded us-en language pack from Microsoft but running the setup file ends with "Sorry we couldn't install.. Error code 30029-1011(0)". In Word language settings the UI and help language is set to the same as system language but I have an English W10.

Language Packs

Hi Voytek,

To address your concern, we would like to know the following:

• Are you trying to install the Polish language pack for Office only?
• Are you pertaining to the whole Windows System's default language?
• Are you looking for the language pack for Internet Explorer 11 / Microsoft Edge only?

For the meantime, you can refer to this link to know how to install the necessary language pack needed:

Language Accessory Pack for Office 2016.

Keep us posted.

Best regards,

Hi there.

adding a LIP merely adds the required language --you can revert back to the original - it's a bit fiddly to do but doesn't alter the languages permanently.

Unless you have an Enterprise / Volume licence Language packs are now in Office 2016 a "Pay" for thjng !!! -- LIP's are still free and the name has been changed to "Language Accessory Pack" just to confuse the poor old user still more !!!!

Cheers

Once you have installed Home and Business 2016 and Professional 2016, you are entitled to a free Language Pack installation (not sure for Home and Student 2016). Just go to Preferences, Languages and add the language you want. There is a link to download it if it is not already installed. The same is true for the respective Office 365 versions.
