How to Install a Language Pack Offline in Server 2022

This post explains how to install a language pack and the language features offline in Windows Server 2022.

Install Language Pack Offline in Server 2022

You can install a language pack and language features offline by downloading the language pack ISO for Server 2022 from Microsoft. You can download the ISO from any computer. This ISO will contain the packages (.cab) files so that they need not be downloaded from the Microsoft Update servers.

Please download the language pack ISO (5.7 GB) for Windows Server 2022 using the link below:

After downloading it, right-click the ISO file and choose Mount. Suppose the drive letter of the ISO is F:.

To install the Japanese (ja-JP) language pack and the language features, run the following commands:



Dism /online /Add-Package /PackagePath:"F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures\Microsoft-Windows-Server-Language-Pack_x64_ja-jp.cab"
Dism /online /Add-Package /PackagePath:"F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures\Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Basic-ja-jp-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~.cab"
Dism /online /Add-Capability /Capabilityname:"Language.Basic~~~ja-jp~0.0.1.0" /source:F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures
Dism /online /Add-Capability /Capabilityname:"Language.Handwriting~~~ja-jp~0.0.1.0" /source:F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures
Dism /online /Add-Capability /Capabilityname:"Language.OCR~~~ja-jp~0.0.1.0" /source:F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures
Dism /online /Add-Capability /Capabilityname:"Language.Speech~~~ja-jp~0.0.1.0" /source:F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures
Dism /online /Add-Capability /Capabilityname:"Language.TextToSpeech~~~ja-jp~0.0.1.0" /source:F:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures

Restart Windows. This installs the Japanese language pack.

Note: Likewise, to install other language packs, like Chinese Simplified, replace ja-JP in the above commands with zh-CN.
