bigred Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 I really can't be arsed to test it myself bigred, you do it. LOL....thanks a lot!
webmedic Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 For english us here I removed lang also. It worked just fine.
bigred Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 Hmm...I use Canadian English (not a lot of difference, but there are some words spelt differently....)...Guess I could try it, but I imagine it won't work....too bad there's 100mb of stuff in that folder, and I only need 1 or 2 files....but don't know which ones they are! That sure is a lot of space though...I like it...
GreenMachine Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 There are a few rather large font files in there I bet'cha could do without ... (*.TT_), as well as some stuff which is obviously japanese.
Nephilim Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 Does anyone have a clue what will happen on a german system. I mean the whole system is translated to german and therefore I don't see a problem. Anyone out there sharing this oppinion?There could be problems for the guys down in switzerland and austria as they may have the same problems as Bigred, but hey that doesn't have to bother me, does it?
webmedic Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 well if i undserstand correctly different version asre sold in differnt parts of the world so it may be for you that the default is german and you could still delete the lang folder as it would be every thing else.It would be interesting to find out though.
Aaron Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 I can confirm that its safe to delete the LANG folder for British users Having checked the Regional Settings via control panel, everything seems to be in order, with United Kingdom chosen in every option.

Triple A Posted September 20, 2003 Posted September 20, 2003 You only need the system32 and the asms directories. The rest can be deleted.
