Details:
Beginning with Windows 10, version 2004, cumulative updates have regularly included user-facing feature improvements. For a subset of languages, this can result in unexpected language fallback: text for updated features may be shown in an unexpected language until the system updates the corresponding Local Experience Pack (LXP). To address this, we are adjusting the language options we offer for device imaging.
Until now, OEMs and businesses were offered two language packaging options for device imaging: Component-Based Servicing lp.cab files and Local Experience Pack .appx files. The 38 fully-localized Language Pack (LP) languages were available as both lp.cab and .appx packages, while the remaining 72 partially-localized Language Interface Pack (LIP) languages were only available as .appx packages.
Starting with Windows 11, we are moving to a model where the 38 LP languages—as well as five LIP languages (ca-ES, eu-ES, gl-ES, id-ID, vi-VN)—can only be imaged using lp.cab packages. With this change, we ensure a fully supported language imaging and cumulative update experience.
When will this happen:
This change will take effect with the general availability of Windows 11 in October 2021.
How will this affect your organization:
The remaining 67 LIP languages will move to a self-service model. This means that Windows desktop device users can use the Settings app to add any supported language, including the 67 LIP languages that cannot be used for system imaging. We are also enabling non-administrator user accounts to add both a display language and corresponding language features. This is part of a new end-to-end capability to empower users in business environments.
