If you're using Windows 8.1, you can also follow these steps:
- Go to the Start menu and click on the "Devices and Printers."
- Select the device that displays your desktop and right-click on it.
- Click on "Properties," then "Display Languages."
- Choose "English" as the language to display for the current desktop.
After following these steps, you will see that your computer's default settings have been changed to English, including the date and time format, global keyboard layouts, and startup programs. However, if you want to permanently switch back to Chinese or any other language, you'll need to perform the following steps:
-
In the Control Panel, go to "Region and Language" under "Language & region."
-
Find the country or region where you wish to set the language and click on the desired language setting. a. For China, look for the "China" option, followed by the corresponding region code (CN). b. If there's no "China" option, check if there's a regional language set for your user account, which is usually named "zh-CN" or something similar.
-
Once you've selected the appropriate language setting, click on the "Apply" button or press enter.
-
Windows will prompt you to restart your computer to apply the changes.
Now, whenever you open Windows, your system will display in the specified language. Keep in mind that some applications may still use the native language, while others might not support multiple languages out-of-the-box. To make them fully compatible with the new language, you might need to download and install additional language packs or update the installed software.
Additionally, if you don't want to change the operating system's default language but want to access multi-language resources, such as learning materials, apps, or websites, you can consider installing multilingual localization tools like Locale Assistant or Microsoft's Multilingual Universal Apps (UAPs). These tools enable you to add additional languages to your system without requiring a separate installation or update of the operating system. The specific steps will depend on the language pack you choose to install and the UAP platform you're using (e.g., Android, iOS, or Windows Store).
