Downloading UI translations for offline use

Microsoft Language Portal features an online search displaying results from our terminology database and text strings used in our products.

In addition to the online search, you can download the text strings (a.k.a. "UI strings") in CSV format with an MSDN or TechNet subscription. These now include Windows 7 translations. The content of these files is identical to what you will find in the online search on the Language Portal, but the UI strings in CSV format can be useful for offline searches.

Click one of the links to go to the MSDN or TechNet sites. The files containing the translations are located in the Tools and Resources section under Translation Glossaries. Each language download is a Zip file containing multiple individual products.

• MSDN: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/securedownloads/default.aspx
• TechNet: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/securedownloads/default.aspx

Tip: If the download options are not available, you may need to activate your MSDN or TechNet subscription under “My Account”.
