    Win10 – Language change Arabic to English

    I just bought a 2nd hand laptop by occasion and it has only one problem: the Windows 10 was installed in Arabic language and I need it in English. I do not read/speak Arabic language.
    I looked over many YouTube videos in Arabic and English language about how to change the language in Win10. Unfortunately my screens that I see in Arabic language do not match the screens seen in Arabic on YouTube videos/tutorials, so I cannot do a blind click-click and by chance to change it into English.
    I can make print screens and then put them in USB stick and upload them here on EE from another PC – that I figure it out.
    I do not want to reinstall Win10 from scratch, but of course that is the last option.
    Below are the first steps which leaded me to, I hope, Language and Regional Settings in Win10, but where to click further and what to choose?
    I really need your guidance in step by step with pictures where shall I click in order to install the English language.
    A tutorial in English does not help. I need a tutorial (step by step) in Arabic with pictures.

    Win10 – Language change Arabic to English

    You can always open language settings page direct. Open a 'Run' dialogue (press *Start + R) Then type ms-settings:regionlanguage and enter.

    Then it is a bit of guessing.

    If English is not there click on the plus sign and add it. You'll get a list of languages and a greyed out "Next" button and an active "Cancel" button. The language name English will be shown in both English and Arabic. Click on it and the "Next" button becomes active. By default it will download the language pack and set it as default display language. There are 2 buttons here - "Install" and "Cancel". As "Install" appears just where "Next" was you can click on it without moving your mouse.

    If English is already there select it and you get 3 buttons which in English are "Set as Default", "Options", "Remove". I don't think Arabic rearranges order of buttons on UI so just click to one on the left. Worst case you delete it and have to install it again.

    Why Arabic language is displaying while my default language is English?

    Win10 – Language change Arabic to English

    You think is easy by guessing, but is not, especially when things are mirrored left to right.
    Anyway, I did it.
    Here is what I have done next.
    Knowing now that my Win10 is Home 64bit Build 17134 version 1803, I have downloaded from here the EN US language pack:
    Windows 10 Version 1803 Language Packs Direct Download Links
    Then I just put it on USB stick, renamed it lpus.cab,moved it on laptop C: and then following the recommendation from the link below:
    mui - How to change Windows 10 interface language on Single Language version - Stack Overflow
    I have applied at command prompt as Administrator:
    dism /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\lpus.cab

    Then I have followed your advice with 'Run' dialogue (Windows key + R) Then type "ms-settings:regionlanguage" without quotes and I arrived to the screen below, whihc I have seen below but I was not sure where to change the language.
    Anyway, now, at this point I knew there are at least Arabic and English as display languages installed and somehow I only had to choose Englsih instead of Arabic, so blind, by trial and error I found that besides some Arabic text there is also English text written as option and I supposed is the display language.
    I have just chose that and I restarted the laptop and finally I got the English interface.
    Was an ugly job to do it, but was good that I did not have to reinstall Windows.
