How to change language in Photoshop CS5 from Polish (or any else) to English? (Windows) [locked]

Hi,

I have a Polish language version of Photoshop CS 5 and I'd like to change it to english.

I've tried by

Edit>Preferences>Interface: Interface language

but there is only Polish language to choose.

Is there english version to download anywhere?

I'll be glad for any help

[This question is from January 3, 2012 about CS5. The correct answer for CS5 is no, you have to buy a new version. This thread is now locked, and the answer has changed in newer versions.]

    You are stuck with Polish!


    One installer = one language.


    The only way to get English is to buy an English version (or exchange via Adobe).

    liit64 's answer worked fine for me on CS5.1, thank you very much.

    And for those arguing to go and buy a legal licence : I got a legal one, a French one to be precise, the company bought it, I did not chose the language.

    But there are much more tuts on the web in english than in French, and it's just a pain in the *** to try to figure out which blending mode "multiply" is in French and so on. So in a way, it would make perfectly sens to be able to change language, and it would be great if Adobe would at least provide a choice between default english language OR the language associated with the key you bought.

      totally agree with saikosama.

      I am a legitimate CS5 user with an ITA localized version; I need ITA menus in classes with my students but personally I prefer the ENG version as I am used with almost all the other software I have; also, if I need to produce a tutorial ENG is the way to go for a larger userbase.

      Keeping this language choice locked is a drawback for legitimate users over warez ones as it costs 0 to download 2 or more cracked versions... at least international ENG and the localized language of choice should be included in the standard license.

      just my 2c of course...

      cheers,

      Alessandro

      P.S.: liit64' trick works with CS5 here too BTW...

        Just an interesting note. Bridge does allow the change of the interface language without paying for an extra license for that language.

        Microsoft Office 2010 allows users to purchase language packs ($30 for each language).

        Changing languages does have legit uses.

        For licensed users,it'd be nice* if Adobe might make it a free or pay option without requiring another full price license.

        Also posted to Feature Requests before anyone asks.

        *Of course making note that what I consider nice and what Adobe considers nice might differ slightly.

        1.  Visit the Adobe store online.

        2.  Pay for a license.

        3.  If you have problems with a legitimate license, call Adobe support.

        I was able to replace language into ENGLISH, by using this format

        C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Locales\es_MX\Support Files 

        I replaced  "tw10428.dat" into "tw10428.bak"

          Thanks for this hint. It works on Mac OS as well. Just open package content of Photoshop execution file, search for tw10428.dat (finder search box) and rename it.

              I have a Polish language version of Photoshop CS 5 and I'd like to change it to english.

              You can't! As John said, your language is tied to your serial. You should have bought an English version in the first place, if that's what you wanted.
