Windows computers are rolled out in three different system languages:
 * English (Default)
 * German
 * French
You can change the current language at any time. Please keep in mind that you will have to restart your computer to see the changes. It is possible to install further languages without the need of elevated privileges (even if you are asked to enter an user name and password).
