More than 30 minutes to install a language pack?
Happy new year to everyone.
Is it normal that the Windows 365 PC , 2 core with 8GB RAM takes more than 30 minutes (still running) to install a language pack?
I see lots of online discussions stating that the disk performance is terrible for this configuration and hence the performance.
Any suggestions or words of advice would be appreciated.

Usually, language pack installation should take just a few minutes, even on modest specs.
Language packs download from Microsoft servers, so slow or unstable network can cause delays.
You should check network connection speed and stability on the Cloud PC.
Restart the Cloud PC.
Open Command Prompt as Admin and copy-paste the following:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Alternatively, you may try installing the language pack offline by downloading the CAB file from Microsoft and installing via PowerShell.
This is a known issue, and Microsoft has no intention of fixing it.
Since 24H2 this has been happening on more computer which was purchased new.
It shouldn't take that much time, however can you check with any other network and see? Any VPN installed or configured? We have couple of users who dont rely heavily on softwares using this configuration and havent heard any complaints so far..
