Translating Ramires’s answer – the best one. First be sure your server access the internet. It worked like a charm for me.

– Just goto to Control Panel – Clock, Language and Region – Language.
– Then click on “Add a Language” and choose your language (this will be the same as adding language to any Windows OS).
– Now you click on Options and can choose keyboard layout and other language specific options.
– On the top of the Options window, on section “Windows display language”, it will look for available language pack. When it finds it, click on “Download and install language pack”. An usual update download and install window will appear and complete the operation automatically for you.

To change default display language, you go to Control Panel – Language – Options (of the desired language) and click on “Make this the primary language” (or something like this). Logoff as asked and, then, logon.

You don’t need to change numbers and dates’ formats, as the default is to use the display language standards. To change current and new users’ logon screen, format and etc., go to Control Panel – “Change date, time or number formats”. On tab “Location”, choose your country, on tab “Administrative”, click on “Copy settings…” select “Welcome screen and system accounts” e “New user accounts” and click on “OK”. You need to reboot so it is completely on the new language.
