as John proposed
Just deleting the locale you don't want should be sufficient.

language.
This is hard to beleave as you deleted the translations. I don't see a way how PSPP can still show you the translated messages after you deleted them.
I guess you didn't reboot your MSWindows after deleting and before checking. In that case I wouldn't be surprised if MSWindows found the translations in the cash and showed them to you. The cache is cleared after a short time or after a reboot I guess that is the explanation why it worked after you tried more. Not your actions but the time used for you action was the key for the success.
