    Change OSLanguage from EN-US to EN-GB


    Hi there,We have some machines on our estate that where imaged using the wrong OSLanguage, these where issued as EN-US instead of EN-GB, in the grand scheme of things its not a huge problem for us as we have changed the default keyboard layout to EN-GB but does anyone know if it is possible to change the Default OSLanguage from EN-US to EN-GB using Group Policy, Powershell Script or SCCM.We have about 800 devices that this will need correcting on.ThanksChris

    :)

    Difference between en, en-gb and uk editions v1903

    Never seen a UK-only version before. Strictly speaking, the en-gb version is not a solely UK version, it is officially called 'English International'.

    Change OSLanguage from EN-US to EN-GB

    Difference between en-US and en-GB versions


    The original Installed Language does matter (God knows why).

    If you Upgrade or In-place Upgrade (Repair Install) with the wrong language, you may be informed you can't Keep Files, settings and Apps.

    Files only or Nothing (Clean Install)


    You can check which language is your original in Registry entry (Win+R regedit )

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\Language\InstallLanguage

    The Hex language codes are listed here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/221435

    So Dutch is 413 / 0413 (Hex)
    German 0407
    US English 0409
    UK English 0809
    etc etc

    Download and keep the correct iso for your system. eg

    MS Media Creation Tool (W8.1)

    MS Media Creation Tool (W10)
