    Is it better to install language packs via control panel?

    Hi,

    I using an updated command set posted in this thread, Post 413

    To convert an en_US language base iso to an en_GB base language iso but I am getting stuck at copying the en_GB files with xcopy as the required GB Lang files are not there, looking in the directories, they're still en_US and so get the "file not found error", looking at the command set I also cannot see how the base files are changed, so that the correct lang files/folders are present before using the xcopy commands, .

    I have converted the original command set to contain the correct version numbers to work with Win8.1 files and changed the Language references to en_GB and posted my updated command set below with the Xcopy parts I am stuck at in bold.

    Update
    The only problem I can find is after investigating the process I have found that there is a file missing from the copied WinPE cab files for en_GB called "packagename:WinPE-IbsProvider-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~en-GB~6.2.9200.16384", obviously the process removes the en_US package but is not replaced due to the missing file.




    Can anyone assist me in getting this to work, i'm also sure this will help other members wishing to do the same for 8.1 iso's.

    Thanks for any help!
