Recently I needed to change language for Windows 10 single language edition. When PC was purchased it had non-English language installed and as it was single language edition (you may check it in My PC > Properties) it was not possible to change language from OS UI on English (for me it is simpler to have it on English). However at the end it became possible to change it from command line (see below). The most tricky part is to get correct version of needed language pack. In my case OS had 10.0.15063.0 build and correct language packs links for this build are listed here: Language Pack (Build 15063 – 1703). In case link won’t work here are the links:
After you get correct language pack run the following commands in cmd as administrator:
1. Install new language pack:
dism /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\lp.cab
(assume that language pack is copied to c:\ drive and has name lp.cab)
2. List installed language packs:
dism /Online /Get-Packages
3. Copy identifier of previous language pack which came with the system and remove it:
dism /Online /Remove-Package /PackageName:{package_id}
Where instead of {package_id} you should use copied language pack identifier. After that restart Windows (it will ask you to do that) and after some time when it will be restarted OS UI will use new language.
