Hello,

When i install a language pack, after the download and at the end of the installation progress bar, it says:

The following updates were not installed:

French Language Pack - Windows 8 for x64-based Systems - (KB2607607) [fr-FR_LP]

And there is no information about the error(s).

What can i do ? Is there somewhere i could see a detailed log with possibly more information about errors that occured ?

Windows for home | Previous Windows versions | Email and communications

    I tried formatting the hard drive and re-installing the software several times. However I could not fix the bug.

    So I asked a friend of mine to borrow a dvd with the language I wanted. Then I used my serial and solved the problem.

    Here is the deal.

    If a package, for any reason, is downloaded corrupted, as soon as the instalation fails, ALL files installed should be deleted from the system. This also should happen when the user deletes a language that the instalation failed or uninstalling one.

    Right now, this doesn't happen.

    So, when trying to download and install it again, the installation is seeing the previous corrupted file and not replacing it, so it makes impossible to install that given package.

    Now MS, get your stuff together and do it right,

    Same problem here!

    I just wasted 2 days trying to install the English language pack -.-

    I tried to install Russian LP, and it worked fine -.-

    The problem appeared after I refreshed my system. Before I had installed English language pack... I think it's the one of Windows updates which cause the problem.
