Install language pack in Windows 11

When you install Windows, you will be given an option to select your preferred language. If you do, Windows will use your preferred language for Windows features such as Settings and Windows Explorer.

After you install Windows on your device, you can also install additional language packs to expand your list of Windows display languages. Language packs may include features to support text-to-speech, speech recognition, handwriting, keyboard, optical character recognition and more.

If a language is listed under preferred languages ​​but not in the list of Windows display languages, you must first install the corresponding language pack. This is only possible if the language package is available.
