If I may chime in.

 

I did that yesterday before I donated my English language Spectre 13 with English Windows 10 to a Dutch family home for at-risk teens. I took me about an hour to do it.

 

I changed the language to Dutch by downloading the Media Creator utility, creating  a English language Windows 10  installer flash drive and installing Windows 10.   When the installer completed, The OS display language was in Dutch.

 

 

Download the English language Windows 10 Media creator utility from the following link.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

 

You will need a USB flash drive of at least 4GB and no greater than 32GB to create the Windows 10 English language installer. 64GB flash drives are reported as non-functional with the Windows media creator.

 

This creates a vanilla Windows 10 installation with the available language of your choice. You will still need to install the drivers from the driver download section of the  English language support page for your notebook afterwards.

 

I hope you find the following images helpful in resolving your language change issue.
