You will need to download the russian version from GS website. There is no way to change versions.

@Eduardo Rolon but I don't think it will work it's on a hardware dongle license. The licence is localization dependent, isn't it?

@tlenor is Archicad running on a Codemeter dongle or is it some other license type?

AFAIK License does not discriminates between versions, with my Codemeter I can run INT, USA and when I could download, SPA.

I had to install the GER localization to get the GER library as I was helping solving some problems  on a Germany based project. I tried to run the GER localization on my INT license. It didn't work.

I think it might be language dependent.

I run AUS but can also run other English language versions - INT, USA and I think I might have tried UKI once.

But I tried the French version once and I could not run it.

Maybe because you are in a multi-lingual area, you might get the option of more languages.

 

If the original poster has a legitimate Russian license then he may be able to download and install the INT version - I think everybody gets to use that (I am not 100% sure though).

But if he has an INT version (or other English language version) then that may be all he can run (apart from other English language versions) - but again I am not 100% sure.

Versions 6.5 to 27
Dell XPS- i7-6700 @ 3.4Ghz, 16GB ram, GeForce GTX 960 (2GB), Windows 10
Lenovo Thinkpad - i7-1270P 2.20 GHz, 32GB RAM, Nvidia T550, Windows 11

I think the GER/CHE/AUT versions all are in their separate tier - they have some additional, regionally specific features developed in there. The INT version seems to be accessible with most keys (I have a hardware key for the HUN version). 

 

I'm curious: is there a chart about which keys are "compatible"?

 

+1 It would be helpful to have an inventory of the different libraries, not to have to install a specific version just to get it...

That was one of my wishes, a global SSA Database.
