Deleting foreign languages...

[aaagat111]

When i open an apps content packages there is always .lproj files for different languages that take up a lot of space? If i delete these files will it mess up the programs or change them in any way.

Thanks,

They're most definitely removable however I recommend using an app like Monolingual or LanguageStripper to do it for you.

DeLocalizer from www.bombich.com works great.

DeLocalizer from www.bombich.com works great.

I just used that the other day to get rid of all the new localizations that the 10.4.4 update brought. Took away another 125 MB. Not much you say? Well I ran it after upgrading to 10.4.3, too (and then it took away much more), so all those files came from just that last update...

DeLocalizer is a bit slow, but still going strong...
