Disabling Language Pack in Windchill PDMLink 10.1

We installed Chinese language pack in our Windchill PDMLink 10.1
installation. We got the feedback from users that it is not useful and
asked us to remove it.
I am wondering if anyone knows how to uninstall/disable installed language
packs. I am thinking of deleting the locale specific files from codebase
and rebuilding the jar files. Thought I would check with others for any
other suggestions.

Thanks,

Prathap,
AFAIK once something is installed then it's not really possible to remove
it from existing installation. So i don't think deleting the locale
specific files from codebase and rebuilding the jar files will do the
task. Though curious to know if it works.


Thanks,

Regards,

Deleting the locale files and rebuilding jar files worked fine. However
winchill version command still shows locale details as I didn't change any
registry entries. I am guessing if I install next MOR patch or upgrade,
locale files will get reinstalled.


cd /data/ptc/Windchill_10.1/Windchill/

find . -name "*_zh_*" | xargs tar -cvf ChineseLocaleFiles.jar
find . -name "*_zh_*" -type f -exec rm -vf {} \; | tee
DeletedChineseLocaleFiles.log

ant -f MakeJar.xml
