Hi!

The attempt to install other display languages doesn't work. In Control Panel/Clock, Language and Region/Language/Language options is see the message "Connect to the Internet to check for language packs". I am connected to the Internet cause otherwise I wouldn't be able to write this message.

What does Windows mean exactly with connect to the Internet?

    Hi,

    This issue could be due to proxy server or language pack settings. Let’ try these steps and check if it helps.


    Download and install the language packs manually in Clean Boot.

    Note: To reset the computer to normal mode after troubleshooting, please refer “**How to reset the computer to start as usual”**from the above article.

    After performing a clean boot, you may download the language pack updates manually from the Microsoft Download Center and then install them on the computer from this link:
