This has always been a confusing issue and i have not found anywhere on Microsoft website to indicate the correct one.
I want to do clean installs in Australia and New Zealand but don't know which ISO I should use.
Do i use en_US (English United States) or en_GB (English International)?
I have found if i use en_US than i need to download New Zealand Language pack but if i use en_GB the language pack is included
I have recently purchased a dell pc for New Zealand which has a base language of en_US but would still like a definitive answer from Microsoft on what is the correct image to use

Hi,
For fresh installation windows 10 for Australia and New Zealand you must use the en_GB (English International). ISO. if you are upgrading it doesn't matter you can use the en_US (English United States)
You can download Windows 10 and installed through Media Creation Tool

Hope this helps!

I think not. It seems the obvious one, but in fact it causes many problems. The GB version has an unusual keyboard settings because of the pound key and causes lots of problems in Australia and New Zealand (for instance, the @ key is in the wrong place). You are much better of using the en-us version and sticking with the US keyboard layout. Only change the localisation settings to use the correct time zone etc.
If you do the download from within Australia you will automatically get the correct version.

I think i have had this issue in past so used en_US just can't recall details
You would think Microsoft would have a matrix on which to use depending on country
