Change language in Ubuntu installed by Wubi

[PolkaMan]

This doesn't work for me. When I change the language to English it's still in Swedish for me. Is there any other way?

Not meaning to bring up old thread, but this thing still unanswered and as I got here from searches, so do many other people.

In Ubuntu Server, you check if the desired language is installed either by

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

if it is installed it will show up as updated or as up-to-date

You can also

sudo apt-get remove language-pack-

and TAB TAB for autocompletion. It will autocomplete listing the langpacks available for removal, thus installed.

If yours does not show...

sudo apt-get install language-pack-xx

where xx is your language

Now it is installed but not configured.

Configure it in

nano /etc/default/locale

Finally reboot to apply changes...

sudo reboot
