You can download the different languages from Microsoft’s official website. Over here, all you have to do is to click on the “Get it now” option next to the language package and you would be redirected to the page from where you can download the package.
Step 5 – Download the package
Make sure you are downloading the package for the correct OS Version, that is, the windows platform which you are currently using. For this tutorial, we will download the 64 bit version.
Step 6 – Install the downloaded language
Once the selected language package has been downloaded, let’s install it on the system.
With the installer opened up, simply click on the next button to move on with the process.
Step 7 – Accept the license terms

After that, the language package will be installed and you can then easily change the language on the computer.
Step 8 – Select the display language
Once the installation is complete, you will be required to select the display language. Let’s select the newly installed language and tick on the check box titled “Apply display language to welcome screen and system accounts”.
After that, click on the change display language button to apply the changes made. With that done, you will be required to restart windows.
Once the system has rebooted, you would notice that the computer language has been changed.
