Microsoft has made the Multilingual User Interface Packs for Windows Media Player 11 available to all the users of authentic copies of Windows XP. This because the download of the MUI packs for WMV 11 is conditioned by the validation of the operating system copy you are running.

"The Multilingual User Interface (MUI) Packs for Windows Media Player 11 enable customers using the Windows XP Multilingual User Interface versions of the operating system to switch the user interface (menus, dialog boxes, and Help) for Windows Media Player 11 from one language to another," explained Microsoft.

Via the MUI packages, users can have access to an array of additional languages for Windows Media Player 11.
