Windows 10: Reinstalling Windows 11 OEM with different language

I purchased a Medion laptop with original Windows 10 pre-installed in English. The laptop comes from foreign distribution. Unfortunately, my language is not available on the original recovery disk. I updated this system to Windows 11 using the English ISO image from the Microsoft website. However, I would like to change the language.

Reinstalling Windows 10 OEM license with different system language

I have a laptop that came preinstalled with Windows 10 Home, installation language Czech. I have a digital license for this laptop, linked to my Microsoft account. I'd like to reinstall Windows 10 Home, but in English. According to

this thread on superuser.com, OEM licenses 'usually' allow for installations in different languages. My question: how do I find out whether my license is transferable to an English installation.

Thank you.

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".

Change your Windows display language
