  1. How to Upgrade from Windows 10 Single Language Edition?


    I bought the full version of Windows 10 and ran the upgrade executable. Now it's asking me to confirm that I'd like to install Single Language edition, which I'm already running.

    For background, my PC is an HP Pavilion purchased in Russia. The Windows 10 key I've now bought was from either Microsoft US or AU.

    I contacted a Microsoft adviser and they straight up told me to install from a USB, which, besides being a pain in the ass, will wipe all my data. Is there a more straightforward way to do this?

    If I had know about this nifty little piece of DRM, I wouldn't have bought this PC.

  3. Windows 8.1 Single Language upgrade to Windows 10

    Hi,

    Mi Windows 8.1 single language is in Russian.

    I understood that if I upgrade it with Windows 10, it will still be a single language.

    Will this Windows 10 language be the same as previous 8.1 edition (Russian) or will I be able to switch to an other single language Windoxs 10 edition (French) ?

    Thanks

    Anthony

    Windows 8.1 Single Language upgrading to Windows 10 Single Language?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Sorry to know that you are facing this issue.

    I would like to let you know that as you have a single language version of Windows 8.1 installed, when you upgrade to Windows 10 it would be upgrade to single language version of Windows 10. You might want to check if there is any language pack available
    for installation which could help you in this issue.

    You only get the logical edition of Windows 10 based on what version and edition is currently installed on the machine, not what was installed before.

    Cheers.
