I need to create custom Windows 10 image for Virtual Desktop users with language different than English. How do I add language to the VM image?

I've tried to add it through the language/region settings interface (via Microsoft Store), but this way langauge pack gets installed only for a single (admin) user and it's not possible to create image with this setup.

I also found this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/add-language-packs-to-windows but it requires OEM or partner license.
