There are various unexpected limitations a given Windows experience can have.
Recently someone’s laptop broke while visiting the Mexican beach I was living so they bought a laptop from the local shop. The Windows install was in Spanish and the language options offered no other language to choose from. All of the tutorials online showed menu options that weren’t there. I tried helping them change it to English.
Apparently, for some reason, Microsoft really does offer single language Windows—I found after some digging.
You still can change language in single language Windows, but it requires a lot of registry changes and restarts. Also technically it breaks the licence.
