Windows 11和Windows 10都是允许您以各种语言使用它们的操作系统，具体取决于您的喜好。添加新语言包并获得您喜欢和理解的Windows显示语言很容易。(Windows)但是，有时，您可能想要相反的结果：删除不再需要的显示语言。从理论上讲，这很容易做到，因为设置(Settings)应用程序允许您只需单击几下或点击几下即可删除Windows显示语言。(Windows)但是，有时系统会出现异常，您无法从Windows 10或Windows 11 中删除语言。在本教程中，我们将向您展示两种方法：如何删除(Windows)设置中的(Settings)Windows显示语言以及如何使用PowerShell中的命令完全卸载语言包：
关于从Windows 11(Windows 11)和 Windows 10中删除显示语言您应该了解的内容
有两种方法可以从Windows 11或 Windows 10 中删除显示语言。第一种是使用友好的设置(Settings)应用程序，第二种是使用PowerShell或Windows Terminal中的一些特殊命令。然而，虽然相似，但每种方法的作用略有不同：
- 当您使用“设置”(Settings)应用删除语言包时，实际上并没有将其卸载。它只会从您的Windows计算机或设备上安装的语言列表中删除。如果您尝试再次安装相同的显示语言，Windows不会从Windows Update下载它。它只会快速使其恢复供您使用。如果这是您想要的，请按照本指南的第一章从Windows 11中删除(Windows 11)Windows显示语言或按照第二章从Windows 10中删除语言包。
- 但是，有时Windows的行为并不正常，即使您从“设置”(Settings)应用程序中删除了语言，它们也会继续打开。这会让你想知道“为什么我不能从 Windows 10 或 Windows 11 中删除一种语言？” (“Why can’t I remove a language from Windows 10 or Windows 11?”). 不幸的是，我们没有明确的答案。有时，问题可能是一个拙劣的Windows更新或只是操作系统中的一个错误。但是，如果您想要完全卸载Windows显示语言及其所有文件，那么有一个解决方案应该始终有效：使用本教程第三部分和最后一部分中提供的特殊PowerShell命令。(PowerShell)
1. 如何使用设置从Windows 11中删除语言包(Windows 11)

3. 如何使用PowerShell从(PowerShell)Windows 11或 Windows 10完全卸载显示语言
在Windows 11和Windows 10中，如果您无法摆脱某种显示语言，还有另一种更激进的卸载方式，即使用PowerShell。以下是它的工作原理：
(Start PowerShell)以管理员身份启动 PowerShell或启动 Windows 终端并在其中(launch Windows Terminal)打开一个 PowerShell 选项卡(open a PowerShell tab)。然后，运行以下命令以获取您计算机上当前安装的Windows语言包的列表：(Windows)
查看PC 上安装的(Look)Windows语言包列表，并记下要卸载的显示语言的LanguageTag 。例如，我们想删除罗马尼亚语(Romanian)显示语言，它的LanguageTag是ro-RO，如下图所示。
使用PowerShell获取已安装语言包的列表
知道要删除的Windows显示语言的(Windows)LanguageTag后，键入（或(LanguageTag)copy/paste）并一一执行以下命令：
$LanguageToUninstall = $Languages | where LanguageTag -eq "YourLanguageTag"
$Languages.Remove($LanguageToUninstall)
Set-WinUserLanguageList $Languages -Force
确保将YourLanguageTag替换为您要卸载的Windows显示语言的语言标签，即您在运行第一个命令时记下的语言标签。在我们的示例中，因为我们要卸载罗马尼亚语Windows显示语言，我们将YourLanguageTag替换为ro-RO，如下所示：$LanguageToUninstall = $Languages | where LanguageTag -eq "ro-RO.”
卸载Windows语言包的命令
运行这些命令后，操作系统会立即删除您指定的Windows显示语言。
您(Did)是否设法删除了所需的Windows显示语言？
如您所见，有一种从Windows 11和Windows 10中删除显示语言的简单方法和彻底方法。如果第一个不起作用，PowerShell命令应该可以解决问题。我们希望本指南可以帮助您解决与卸载语言包相关的任何问题。如果您有任何问题或意见，请随时在下面的评论中告诉我们。
How to remove Windows display languages
Both Windows 11 and Windows 10 are operаting systems that allow you to use them in variоus languages, depending on what you prefеr. It’s easy to add a new language pack and get yourself the Windows display language you like and understand. However, sometimes, you mіght want the opposite: delete a display language that you nо longer need. Theoretically, that’s eaѕy to do, as the Settings app allows you to remove a Windows display language in just a few clicks or taps. However, there are times when the system misbehaves, and you just can’t remove a language from Windows 10 or Windows 11. In this tutorial, we show you both ways: how to delete a Windows display language from Settings and how to completely uninstall a language pack using commands in PowerShell:
What you should know about removing display languages from Windows 11 and Windows 10
There are two ways to remove a display language from Windows 11 or Windows 10. The first one is to use the friendly Settings app, and the second is to use some special commands in PowerShell or Windows Terminal. However, while similar, each method does a slightly different thing:
- When you remove a language pack using the Settings app, you don’t actually uninstall it. It’s only removed from the list of languages that are installed on your Windows computer or device. If you try to install the same display language again, Windows doesn’t download it from Windows Update. It only quickly enables it back for you to use. If this is what you want, follow the first chapter of this guide to remove a Windows display language from Windows 11 or the second chapter to remove a language pack from Windows 10.
- However, sometimes Windows just doesn’t behave as it should, and languages keep turning back on even if you deleted them from the Settings app. That can make you wonder “Why can’t I remove a language from Windows 10 or Windows 11?”. Unfortunately, we don’t have a clear answer. Sometimes, the issue can be a botched Windows update or just a bug in the operating system. But, there is a solution that should always work if what you want is to completely uninstall a Windows display language and all its files: use the special PowerShell commands presented in the third and last section of this tutorial.
1. How to remove a language pack from Windows 11 using Settings
If you want to uninstall a language pack from your Windows 11 device, you must first open the Settings app, and a quick way to do that is to simultaneously press Windows + I on your keyboard. Next, select Time & language on the left sidebar and click or tap on Language & region on the right pane.
Go to Language & region in Windows 11's Settings
On the Language & region page, check the Language list and find the language pack that you want to uninstall. Then, click or tap on the three dots button on that language’s right side.
click or tap on the three dots next to the language you want removed
Finally, click or tap on the Remove option from the menu displayed.
Choosing to Remove a Windows 11 display language
Once you’ve removed the language pack, that language is gone and is no longer an option you can use for your Windows display language.
TIP: To get it back, you need to add that language pack again, which you can do by following the steps in this tutorial: How to change the language on Windows 11.
2. How to remove a language pack from Windows 10 using Settings
To remove a language pack on a Windows 10 PC, open the Settings app. A fast way to do that is to press the Windows + I keyboard keys, but there are other methods too, which you can read about in this article. Once you’ve launched Settings, click or tap on the Time & language category to enter it.
Go to Time & Language in Windows 10's Settings
On the Time & language page, select Language on the left sidebar.
The Language page from Windows 10's Settings app
On the right pane, scroll down to the Preferred languages section. In it, locate the Windows 10 language pack that you want to uninstall and select it by clicking or tapping on it. Then, press the Remove button on the right of that language.
The option to Remove a Windows 10 display language
As soon as you press Remove, the language pack is deleted and can’t be used as your Windows display language anymore.
TIP: To get the removed language pack back or install a new one on your Windows 10 PC, you can follow the steps from this tutorial: How to change the language on Windows 10: All you need to know.
3. How to completely uninstall display languages from Windows 11 or Windows 10 using PowerShell
In Windows 11 and Windows 10, if you can’t get rid of a certain display language, there’s another more radical way of uninstalling it, using PowerShell. Here’s how it works:
Start PowerShell or launch Windows Terminal as an administrator and open a PowerShell tab in it. Then, run the following command to get the list of Windows language packs currently installed on your computer:
Look through the list of Windows language packs installed on your PC and note the LanguageTag of the display language you want to uninstall. For example, we wanted to remove the Romanian display language, and its LanguageTag is ro-RO, as you can see in the following screenshot.
Using PowerShell to get the list of installed language packs
Once you know the LanguageTag of the Windows display language that you want to get rid of, type (or copy/paste) and execute the following commands, one by one:
$LanguageToUninstall = $Languages | where LanguageTag -eq "YourLanguageTag"
$Languages.Remove($LanguageToUninstall)
Set-WinUserLanguageList $Languages -Force
Make sure you replace YourLanguageTag with the language tag of the Windows display language you want to uninstall, the one you noted when you ran the first command. In our example, because we wanted to uninstall the Romanian Windows display language, we replaced YourLanguageTag with ro-RO, like this: $LanguageToUninstall = $Languages | where LanguageTag -eq "ro-RO.”
The commands that uninstall a Windows language pack
Once you’ve run these commands, the operating system immediately deletes the Windows display language you specified.
Did you manage to remove the Windows display language you wanted?
As you can see, there’s an easy way and a thorough way to remove display languages from Windows 11 and Windows 10. If the first one doesn’t work, the PowerShell commands should do the trick. We hope this guide has helped you solve any issues related to uninstalling language packs. If you have any questions or comments, don’t hesitate to let us know in a comment below.
