I’ve been working for Windows language pack lately, particularly in the OSD part of SCCM. So part of that is knowing what the language pack codes are for various languages.
The Windows language pack codes are very useful for dictating which language packs get installed during the deployment phase of your task sequence.
2024 Update
Included in this latest up-to-date Windows Language Pack download are the 32-bit and 64-bit language packs for 38 different languages and also the Local Experience Packs to go with them.
