Lync 2013 Enabling the Conversation Translator
Some of you may be wondering how to get the conversation translator functionality working now that you have upgraded to Lync 2013. Until there is an official release here is a quick fix. Copy the following text into a text editor and save as a .reg file. Then merge it into your registry and you should have the functionality back up and working like before. Make sure to restart Lync to affect the registry changes.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
