In an attempt to change the language, I ended up uninstalling the default one, now I only have access to cmd, no internet. I downloaded the language pack from here (.esd and .cab files), cannot convert that .esd file into .cab, this script gives error.

Those .cab files cannot be installed, this command dism /Image:D:\ /Add-Package /PackagePath:<cab-path> says "source not found", looks like it need internet connection, this happened in windows 11 24H2 x64, cannot run systeminfo.

The ISO file comes with three .cab files, y managed to installed two but didn't solved the problem.

Thanks for any help.
 
Download the missing Language Pack files using this script (which will convert from ESD):
PowerShell GUI for Downloading Language Packs - W10_11LangPack.ps1

Copy the files to an USB drive. On the failed system, run the command:
Code:
lpksetup.exe /i * /p E:\path\folder
I run the script, downloaded all the files, but the command doesn't install it. If I run the script without the * then an install windows popup and show me an error: "Corrupted or invalid language pack file"
 
Code:
Dism /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:"F:\path\Microsoft-Windows-Client-LanguagePack-Package-amd64-en-US.cab"
Dism /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Language.Basic~~~en-us~0.0.1.0 /source:F:\path

Hey, apologies to hijack an old thread but I've managed to do the same thing as OP. Have downloaded the above language packs onto a USB drive but when trying to run the above code I get told that "'lpksetup.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Skipping straight to the DISM code gets me the result that the 'add-package option is unknown'.

What am I doing wrong?
 
Are you working from a live Windows, or WinPE? lpksetup should be around unless you removed its component (don't remember which one it is).
 
OK. I fixed a typo in the DISM command, there's no "=" character. It's supposed to be a ":"
