In the US versions and most other country editions, you can read and write Chinese while using Windows 10 or 8 in your own language English, in my case or you can change the display language to Chinese after installing a free display language pack.

But first, a general introduction to the Chinese features. Windows 10 introduces a finger-friendly Start menu, plus more consistent apps and setup across new and old control panels, helping to do away with the confusing 'bipolar' nature of Windows 8 where changing a setting on the tablet side may not affect the desktop side, or may only be available on one side but still affect both, or whatever. If you have a mainland China version, please see the next section. Windows 8 users: the free upgrade to 10 is a good idea for you, and I recommend you do so as soon as possible if you have an upgradable system. Windows 7 users: before you upgrade, see this list of missing, broken, and just plain lame Chinese language features in Windows The July one-year Anniversary Update made many improvements, but may still be lacking features you need. There are two types of single-language editions that I will discuss below, but Starter, Home, Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions work in multiple languages. Most versions of Windows 10 and 8 include the Chinese features of Windows 7 Ultimate, including display language packs and handwriting input.
