Switching Between English and Spanish

Hi SandyArbogast,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



To switch between languages in Windows 10, go to Settings->Time & Language->Region & language, select the desired display language and click on ‘up arrow’ sign to set it as display language.



To switch between keyboard layouts, you can simply use ‘Alt’ +‘Shift’ key combination.



Unless you have a Spanish keyboard, you may find it difficult to include special characters or letters such as
ñ or é in your text. I would suggest to use the on-screen keyboard to get familiar with the keys used to type these special characters on physical keyboard.



To access on-screen keyboard in Windows, please follow the steps mentioned in the link:

Use On-Screen keyboard in Windows 10.



Hope it helps.
