Features on Demand (FODs) are Windows features that can be added anytime. Standard features include language resources like handwriting recognition or other features like the .NET Framework (.NetFx3). When Windows 10, 11, or Windows Server needs a new feature, it can request the feature package from Windows Update.<\/p>\n

If the Windows Update client is broken on the computer, FODs may not download correctly — e.g., it may stall at 75% or so, or end up with the error code 0x80070490<\/a>. As a workaround, you can install the FODs from the ISO.<\/p>\n

This post tells you how to install a Feature On Demand package offline.<\/p>\n

How to Install a FOD Package Offline<\/h2>\n

You can install a Feature On Demand package offline by downloading the Languages and Optional Features ISO. This FOD ISO contains cab files for all the FODs released for the Operating System.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Download the FOD ISO<\/h3>\n

First, download the Language and Optional Features ISO for your Operating System.<\/p>\n

Windows 11 Language and Optional Features ISO (Source<\/a>)
\n22621.1.220506-1250.ni_release_amd64fre_CLIENT_LOF_PACKAGES_OEM.iso<\/a> (for Windows 11 22H2 and 23H2.)<\/p>\n

26100.1.240331-1435.ge_release_amd64fre_CLIENT_LOF_PACKAGES_OEM.iso<\/a> (for Windows 11 24H2.)<\/p>\n

Windows 10, version 2004 (and later) Features on Demand #1 ISO (Source<\/a>)
\n19041.1.191206-1406.vb_release_amd64fre_FOD-PACKAGES_OEM_PT1_amd64fre_MULTI.iso<\/a><\/p>\n

After downloading the ISO, right-click on it and choose Mount. This assigns a drive letter for the ISO.<\/p>\n

\"Language<\/p>\n

\n

Step 2: Install the Feature On Demand Package from the ISO<\/h3>\n

Let’s say you want to install the “Japanese Supplemental Fonts” Feature from the ISO.<\/p>\n

\nSuppose the FOD ISO’s mounted drive-letter is H:\\<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Note: The CAB file will be in the root folder of the Windows 10 FOD ISO, whereas in the Windows 11 FOD ISO, it is under the “LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures” folder.<\/em>\n<\/div>\n

Follow one of these DISM methods to install the FOD — e.g., Japanese Supplemental Fonts.<\/em><\/p>\n

Method 1: Use Dism \/Add-Capability with the Source path<\/h4>\n

The command-line syntax to add a Capability (with the source path) is below:<\/p>\n

dism \/online \/add-capability \/capabilityname:\"CAPABILITY_NAME\" \/source:\"driveletter:\\path\" \/limitaccess<\/pre>\n
For example, to install the “Japanese Supplemental Fonts” FOD component, run the following command:<\/p>\n
Windows 11<\/strong><\/p>\n
dism \/online \/add-capability \/capabilityname:\"Language.Fonts.Jpan~~~und-JPAN~0.0.1.0\" \/source:\"H:\\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures\" \/limitaccess<\/pre>\n
Windows 10<\/strong><\/p>\n
dism \/online \/add-capability \/capabilityname:\"Language.Fonts.Jpan~~~und-JPAN~0.0.1.0\" \/source:\"H:\" \/limitaccess<\/pre>\n
\"FOD<\/p>\n
RELATED:<\/strong> How to Install Chinese (Simplified, China) Language Offline<\/a><\/div>\n
\n
Method 2: Use Dism \/Add-Package with the source path<\/h4>\n
The command-line syntax to install a FOD CAB file is below:<\/p>\n
dism \/online \/add-package \/packagepath:\"CAB_FILE_PATH\"<\/pre>\n
For example, to install the “Japanese Supplemental Fonts” FOD component, run the following command:<\/p>\n
Windows 11<\/strong><\/div>\n
dism \/online \/add-package \/packagepath:\"H:\\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures\\Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Fonts-Jpan-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~.cab\"<\/pre>\n
Windows 10<\/strong><\/div>\n
dism \/online \/add-package \/packagepath:\"H:\\Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Fonts-Jpan-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~.cab\"<\/pre>\n
You’ll see the following output:<\/p>\n
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool\nVersion: 10.0.22621.1\n\nImage Version: 10.0.22621.1992\n\nProcessing 1 of 1 - Adding package Microsoft-Windows-LanguageFeatures-Fonts-Jpan-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.22621.1\n[==========================100.0%==========================]\nThe operation completed successfully.<\/pre>\n
And then, run the following command:<\/p>\n
dism \/online \/add-capability \/capabilityname:\"Language.Fonts.Jpan~~~und-JPAN~0.0.1.0\" \/limitaccess<\/pre>\n
It should say, “The operation completed successfully.”<\/p>\n
\"fod<\/p>\n
\n
Hint:<\/strong> “Language.Fonts.Jpan~~~und-JPAN~0.0.1.0” is the capability name for Japanese Supplemental Fonts. The list of capability names and the corresponding installation state can be found by running the following command:<\/p>\n
dism \/online \/get-capabilities | more<\/pre>\n
