You're asking about getting a localized version of Windows, like a Chinese version where everything—text, icons, menus—is in Chinese. Or you're considering purchasing a US version that uses American formatting and language.

I'm working on Windows with English settings, and I need to adjust the locale so purchases display US prices. Once the license is purchased and activated, I plan to revert the locale back to my local Asian country.

Regional adaptations of Windows are fixed to specific areas. Only language packs can be added on top. Visit the US Microsoft page and purchase English Windows 10 using any card; it will automatically switch to US currency. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/window...znwk4/1NT3

It looks like purchasing the US edition from the Microsoft store requires a US address, which you don’t possess. The main concern is whether you can update your address and region later—yes, the Windows region can be adjusted from settings, as shown in the attached image.

I set my locale to match my country and purchased Windows 10 at full price via the MS Store because Amazon offered a riskier alternative. I was aiming for a more streamlined experience compared to Apple, especially for those who aren't confined to one region. But honestly, I appreciate your assistance—BB Tech, we can close this thread.
