# How to Change the System Language on Windows 10

Are you looking to change the system language on your Windows 10 computer? Whether you’re more comfortable with another language or need it for work, this guide will walk you through the process step by step.

## Introduction

Windows 10 offers the flexibility to change your system language, allowing you to navigate menus, dialogs, and built-in apps in your preferred language. This feature is particularly useful for multilingual users or those who have purchased a computer with a different default language.

## Step-by-Step Guide

1. **Open the Settings App**: Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app.

2. **Navigate to Time & Language**: In the Settings app, click on “Time & Language.”

3. **Select Language Options**: On the left side, click on “Language” under the Time & Language section.

4. **Add a New Language**: Under “Preferred languages,” click on “Add a language” to search and select the language you wish to install.

5. **Download Language Pack**: If the language isn’t already installed, Windows will prompt you to download the necessary language pack. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

6. **Set as Default**: Once the language is installed, click on the newly added language and select “Set as default.”

7. **Restart Your Computer**: For the changes to take effect, sign out of your account and back in, or restart your computer.

## Troubleshooting Tips

– **Language Not Changing**: If the language doesn’t change after restarting, ensure that the correct language is set as default in the Language settings.
– **Single-Language Edition**: If you’re using a single-language version of Windows 10, you might need administrative privileges or to use the Command Prompt to change the language.
