How to Change KIS 2011 Chinese version to English

Posted by

I just saw KIS 2011 free 1 year License offer shared by Krishna. It seems he was unable to post right way to change KIS 2011 chinese to English version.

There are few difference in KIS 2010 & KIS 2011, so here is my way to transform the Chinese version to English.

  1. After installing the Chinese version,update  KIS 2011, then you need to disable ‘Self Defense’
  2. First click on the “Wheel” (settings) icon, Now click on “Box” like icon, then click on “Badge” like icon and un-check the boxes in right side and apply settings, follow below(similar) image

    3. Disable self defense in KIS 2011

  3. Note: After disabeling self defense, don’t exit or close KIS (chinese) 2011, KIS 2011 interface shoulde be open or running.
  4. Now click “Windows” button —–> “Accessories”—> “Run”, the type regedit and click OK.
  5. In the Registry Editor go to the following path:

    6. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREKasperskyLabprotectedAVP11environment

  6. Now in right side pane, search for ” SkinSwitchDisabled” and change it’s value from 1 to 0.

  7. Now Imediately click or open the running KIS 2011 (China)Interface, then press Shift and F12 (shift + F12).
  8. That’s it, you will see English interface.
  9. Now every time you restrat your PC, again KIS 2011 will be in chinese interface, but when ever you press Shift and F12 it will change to english interface.
  10. This worked for me.

  1. This does not work.. I already tried this method from raymond forums.. after restarting your computer it says “License Error”

  7. hey if u can then tell the method to successfully use this key…because this is not working …only it says is license error

  8. I have tried exactly what Ramakanth said but I failed. Whenever I restart my computer, it came with license error. No way!

  10. You didn’t asked to turn on self-defense back, will this trick work after enabling that. Also, this is a temporary solution and KIS 2011 will show all the notifications & pop-ups in Chinese only.

    1. Defeinetly after registry edit and changeing interface language, one has to enable self defense.yes, it’s temporary solution & it seems there is no permanent working solution.

  12. THe problem is that the chinese kaspersky version is blocking a lot of my programs and internet due to languages issues that I can’t resolve.

  13. IF U HAVE LICENSE ERROR !!!

    Download kavremover.exe http://support.kaspersky.com/downloads/utils/kavremover.exe

    Fill the captcha and set it to all Kaspersky product

    After it finished U can install chinese version without license error.

    Chinese to English (I tried with Kis 2010)

    Disable the self defense (U find it in the original topic)

    Go to c:program filesKaspersky LabKaspersky Internet Security 2010Skinloc

    Rename the folder Sch to en and en to sch

    restart and voilaaa

    I hope its helped U

    (sry for my bad english)
