In Windows, you have the option to alter the display language of the system, settings, features, and more. You may also add multiple display languages and switch between them at your convenience.

Note: If you encounter messages such as 「Only one language pack allowed」 or 「Your Windows license supports only one display language」, it indicates that your device is operating on a single-language version of Windows 11/10. With this version, you are unable to add new languages unless you upgrade to Windows 11/10 Home or Windows 11/10 Pro.
