Windows 10: Change Windows 10 Home Single Language Display Language

When I first opened my computer after buying it, it asked me to pick a language. I accidently clicked on Portuguese, and now my entire computer is in Portuguese, which I don't speak very well. I read the tutorials and tried to change the display language to English via Settings, but it says my Windows license only supports one language. Then I tried factory resetting the computer, but it never asked me to pick a language again. It just skipped straight to region. I tried deleting Portuguese from the computer, but even if English is the only language I have downloaded, it still won't let me choose anything other than Portuguese for my display language. I read somewhere that to change my display language I'd have to upgrade to Windows Home or Windows Pro. Will I really have to pay to fix this problem? Using it in Portuguese is simply not an option.

Windows 8.1 update changed the language, can't change back

Maybe, these will help... it seems it is a common enough problem.

Language packs are no longer available after you upgrade to Windows 8.1

And, sort of the same here --> Add a language or keyboard

Quote from above MS web page:

Spoiler Download and install language packs
You'll need to download the language pack if you want to make a language your Windows display language (that's the language you see most often in Windows and apps).

• Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
  (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)
• Tap or click Time and language, and then tap or click Region and language.
• Tap or click a language that says Language pack available underneath, and then tap or click Options.
• Tap or click Download. The download process might take a while, depending on your PC and the size of the language pack.
  If you want to make this your display language, see the next section "Change your Windows display language".

How to change Display Language in Windows 10 Home Single Language Version

Hi, I have an HP laptop running by Windows 10 Home single language edition and recently installed Release 1903. I need to change the Windows Display Language to a different Language. The option to do that has a drop down menu, yet it doesn't allow me to
change the selected language. I searched the internet, watched videos posting steps to do that. However, some of the options illustrated in these tips materials don't exist in my Window sitting application!!

Is there a way to change the display language, or I have to live with the problem for ever?
