Choose the newly added language pack on the Unattended page settings, 'UI Language' to set the required language during Windows setup if required. Language pack link sets: Windows 10 1903/1909 - 10.0.18362/3 Windows 10 1809 - 10.0.17763 Windows 10 1803 - 10.0.17134 Windows 10 1709 - 10.0.16299 Windows 10 1703 - 10.0.15063 Windows 10 1607 - 10.0. Jump to Windows XP - If you've added more than one language to your PC you can switch between different input languages by using one of the following.
If you live in a multi-lingual household or work with people that speak another language, you can share a Windows 10 PC, by enabling a language interface.
If you live in a multi-lingual household or work alongside a co-worker who speaks another language, you can easily share a Windows 10 PC, by enabling a language interface. A language pack will convert the names of menus, field boxes and labels throughout the user interface for users in their native language. Windows has included multi-lingual support since Windows XP. Microsoft made it an exclusive feature in Windows Vista Ultimate, then dropped this requirement with Windows 8. In this article, we show you how to install a language pack, then switch between them in Windows 10.
Install a Language Pack in Windows 10
First, you need to ensure you have a supported edition of Windows 10, such as Home, Pro or Enterprise. If you’re running Windows 10 Home Single Language, you’ll need to upgrade to the Pro version to add languages. The Single Language version usually comes preinstalled on new computers.
Click Start > Settings or Press Windows key + I then click Time & Language.
Select the Region & Language tab then click Add Language.
Select a language you would like to install. For this article, I will go with Spanish.
You might notice there are subgroups for a particular language, select the appropriate language based on your region or dialect.
Return to the Region & Language tab and then select your Language.
If the download stops, restart the computer, then reopen Region and Language, select your language then click Options > Download again.
When complete, return to the Region & Language tab then click your Language then click Set as default.
Restart your computer, log in, you will now see menus, labels and field boxes in your native language. I notice not all words are translated, so the OS will not be completely fluent.
When you want to switch languages on the fly, click the Language menu in the Notification Area on your Taskbar, and choose your language.
Installing Optional Features
If you like to write or type in your native language, you can install these functions as additional features. Open Regions and Language, select your language, then click Options. Click Download.
You can install as many languages you want too. Do you speak more than one language and use Windows? If so, let us know in the comments. Gracias!
-->The following tables show the supported language packs for Windows 10 and Windows Server, and supported language interface packs (LIPs) for Windows 10. LIPs are available for Windows 10, but are not available for Windows Server. For more information, see Language packs.
The version of the language, LIP, or Feature on Demand must match the version number. For example, you can neither add a Windows 10 version 1809 LIP to Windows 10 version 1803 image, nor add a Windows Server 2019 language pack to Windows Server 2016.
You cannot add languages to Windows 10 Home Single Language and Windows 10 Home Country Specific editions.
To learn how to add languages to Windows, or where to get them, see Where to get language packs and LIPs.
For a complete list of supported languages and locales, see Locale Identifier Constants and Strings.
Supported Language Packs and Language Interface Packs
The following tables include these settings:
- Language/region- The name of the language that will be displayed in the UI. All 38 language packs are available for Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. In Windows Server 2012 the user interface (UI) is localized only for the 18 languages listed in bold.
- Language/region tag- The language identifier based on the language tagging conventions of RFC 3066. This setting is used with the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool, or in an unattended answer file.
- Language/region ID- The hexadecimal representation of the language identifier. This setting is used with the keyboard identifier when specifying an input method using DISM.
- Language/region decimal identifier- The decimal representation of the language identifier. This setting is used in Oobe.xml.
