Need to change the system locale to a different country, I have tried SystemParametersInfo(), GetKeyboardLayout() which didn't help.
How would I change the system locale in C# for a console application?

e.g.,
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("es-AR"); // Espanol - Argentina Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo("es-AR");// Espanol - Argentina e.g,
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-US"); // English - US Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo("en-US");// English - US 1 Comment

I think this will change at the application level but I need to change it at the system level. I mean I have all language packs installed and I want to make the current system locale to a specific locale. Do you have some solution for this
You can use SetLocalInfo.
[DllImport("kernel32.dll")] static extern bool SetLocaleInfo(uint Locale, uint LCType, string lpLCData);
