Uninstalled a language, Basic Typing in "Manage Optional Features" still present.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I suggest you to try adding the Polish Language completely by checking the options
Speech and Handwriting in Install language features.

Once you have added the Polish Language, restart the computer once and follow the below steps.

• Click on the Start Menu > Search for PowerShell >
  Right-click on PowerShell > Click on Run As Administrator.
  
  Once the PowerShell window is up and running, type the following command and hit
  Enter.

Get-WinUserLanguageList

• Now, you will get the languages which are installed. Make a note of language tag of the language which you want to retain. Let's say that this language tag is
  en-US.
  
  Now, type the below command and hit Enter.

Set-WinUserLanguageList en-US

• This command will make other languages disappear.
• Once the above commands are executed successfully, restart the computer once and check if you are still seeing the
  Polish Typing in Manage optional features.

Give it a shot and let us know of any changes.

Hope it helps.

 

Cannot remove languages from Optional Features

Hi, all,

I have a Windows 10 (went through all of the Insider builds) and have a dozen languages that ended up in Optional Features (without my knowledge) that cannot be removed. Those languages (Chinese, Swedish, etc.) have only "Manage" button which does nothing.
In Control Panel -> Languages I have only English and Bulgarian.

I see that there are two places for language packs to install - System32 and SysWOW64. The contents of SysWOW64 is what corresponds to the list in Settins -> System -> Apps & Features -> Optional Features.

I've read on other forums that there was a bug around builds 1004x that could lead to large install times and the addition of many LPK (language packs). And indeed, my RTM install took a good whole night to complete.

So far I have:

• used Lpksetup /u and uninstalled everything there but English. This removed only the languages from System32 but had no effect on SysWOW64 and what is listed in Optional Features.
• have added the languages listed in Optional Features in Control Panel -> Languages so that I can uninstall the language packs from there, but the option available is to Download and install the pack and not to uninstall it
• With #2 in mind, I have downloaded the corresponding language pack in Control Panel -> Languages and have then uninstalled it - Optional Features still list it

How can I remove those languages?

 

Pentium M

Not sure what I'm looking at. Though when I do go to Options and then CPU it lists my CPU
as Intel Pentium M processor 1.73 GHz, and then under that it lists speed: 799.9 MHz
and then features and cache size.I ran the benchmark test and don't understand all
those numbers, but while testing I checked CPUZ and it still says it is running at 800 MHz.
