How to add a new Language pack and Keyboard in Windows 10

Windows 10 has several built-in methods for working with language packs. Thanks to them, you can choose a language from already downloaded packages, as well as install new language packs. If you need to change the language on one computer, then the easiest way is to use autoload, that is, let the system download and install the necessary package itself.

1. In Windows 10, go to the start menu, click on Setting. In the Setting window, select the Time & language section.
   
2. Open Region & language in the preferences window. In the Languages section, click on the Add a language button.

   Agree to restart your computer and you're done.
