Surface Hub now allows end users to change the display language and preferred language, just like in other versions of Windows 10.
Once a Surface Hub admin installs extra languages, users can change the display language by selecting a new one from the available installed languages.
Note
Only Surface Hub admins can install additional languages for availability to end users. First, ensure that your Surface Hub has KB5023773(or a subsequent Windows update) installed. To learn more about the latest Windows 10 Team updates, refer to Surface Hub update history.
Users can change the display language on Surface Hub via a similar process used on desktop versions of Windows 10.
- Select Start > Settings > Time & Language. :::image type="content" source="images/hub-user-change-language-settings.png" alt-text="Screenshot of Surface Hub settings." :::
- Choose from the available languages as installed by your Surface Hub admin. :::image type="content" source="images/hub-user-change-display-language.png" alt-text="Screenshot that shows Windows Display language settings on Surface Hub." :::
- Optional: For best results, also move the new language to the top of the Preferred languages list. :::image type="content" source="images/hub-user-change-preferred-language.png" alt-text="Screenshot that shows Preferred languages list on Surface Hub." :::
- Restart Surface Hub.
Note
The new language setting remains in effect for all future sessions unless changed by another user or an admin. Unlike other user-modified settings, the chosen language is not removed when a user selects End session.
To enable users to change the display language on Surface Hub, admins must first install the desired languages and related options, such as keyboard settings.
- Select Start -> Settings -> Time & Language > View as Admin and sign in with your admin credentials.
- Install languages based on the users' geography, diversity, and preferences to enable an inclusive and seamless interaction with the device in the collaboration space.
- Use the same procedure described in Manage the input and display language settings in Windows.
Note
When end users change the display language, some screens that display admin-only info are not switched to the newly selected language.
Tip
Admins can also install a keyboard layout for another language without switching the user interface. This may be useful for users who collaborate in English and communicate with colleagues in another language.
