  1. Win 10 language doesn't fully change after installing desired language pack


    I recently purchased a laptop from Finland, and upon starting it, I realized it was pre-installed with the windows and its default language was set to Finnish, I have been working on this for quite some time and have been able to install the English language pack and change the language to English and region to US. Although most of text is in English, there are some areas in the settings panel where the language is still displayed in Finnish which makes it hard for me to navigate.

    Is there a way to change the system language to English through windows?

    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
    To change your Windows display language (that's the language you see most often in Windows and apps), first add a language, download and install the language pack, and then follow these steps.
    • 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 the language that you want to set as your display language.
    • Tap or click Set as primary to move the language to the top of the list. If the language can become your Windows display language, you'll see Will be display language after next sign-in appear under the language.
    • Sign out and then sign back in to finish.
    And here is some more info --> Add Language Packs to Windows

    Win 10 language doesn't fully change after installing desired language pack

    Any language pack for Vista ?

    I would install right after wipping the HDD Vista 64 business. So that version has a french language pack included? Never knew that. I'll get use of this cd-key finally then!
    Got myself a small Athlon 64 skt 754 2gigs with 2 gigs ddr400 to go along with it.
    Or should I have to install Win XP 32 bits and update to Win business 64 bit and change the language ?
