Not sure what your execution environment is, but if you can run it from under PowerShell, seems possible that a simple PowerShell script might do the trick, using the right Get-... / Set-... cmdlets as documented here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/international/ Bullet-proofing this so that you don't leave the wrong setting in place if "net use" etc. blow up is a further requirement for real deployment. I don't know enough Windows jargon to figure out _which_ pair will affect the output from "net use" etc., but someone else may be able to shed light on that question. ht -- Henry S.
