Product: Pavilion an0000tu
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
New laptop comes with preinstalled Win 10 Home (OEM Chinese) (Win 10 RTM CoreCountrySpecific OEM:DM) only with no optoin to change the language to english. Looking for possible solution to install English Win 10 Home or WIn 10 Pro. My questions are:
- If i clean install Win 10 from Media Recovery (USB) or ISO, will it automatically change OS to english or will it remain in Chinese language?
- If i purchase Win 10 Pro from Microsoft Store online, will it change the OS to english?

The product key in BIOS may accept Win 10 Home (OEM Chinese) (Win 10 RTM CoreCountrySpecific OEM:DM) only therefore a clean install Win 10 from Media Recovery (USB) or ISO, may still remain in Chinese language?
My suggestion: try the first option fisrt if no luck and try the second option because you WILL get new product key.
Regards.
