How can I change a site's default language after creation (sharepoint 2010)?

Question

after creating a site you can go to: Site Actions / Site Settings / Site Administration / Language Settings and select some alternate language(s) if you've got some language pack(s) installed, but the default one is fix and you can't cange it anymore. Is there a way or some settings.file where you can change the default language?

Answer 1

There is no supported way of changing the language of a site.

Answer 2

Though I am not sure about this, you can play with powershell and try to do this. Look at SPWeb.UICulture property and try to set it to some other language and update web.
