In 2011, a customer had a question about migrating from Windows 2000 to Windows XP. (That’s right, this customer was still using Windows 2000 in the year 2011.) Specifically, they noted that in Windows 2000, they can select multiple languages in the “Language settings for the system” portion of the Regional Options control panel, and they couldn’t find the corresponding control panel setting in Windows XP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
