I have exported Windows 10 Home with English Swedish and Finnish version to install.wim file with DISM tool. 

Dism /Export-mage /SourceImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\ISO\English\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\Files\sources\install.wim /DestinationName:"Windows 10 Home English" 
Dism /Export-mage /SourceImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\ISO\Swedish\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\Files\sources\install.wim /DestinationName:"Windows 10 Home Swedish" 
Dism /Export-mage /SourceImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\ISO\Finnish\sources\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:D:\Installation\Windows10\Files\sources\install.wim /DestinationName:"Windows 10 Home Finnish"

But I can only choose the English language when prompted which language to install.
Is there something, that I am missing?
The Windows version number is 2004.

    /Export-Image is used for Creating a new .WIM file that includes only the files you need from a single volume image, I don’t see your command includes the parameter which can export language package part. I don’t think we can easily use this /Export-Image command to Split one wim into multiple single language wims.
    Microsoft document doesn’t give any example related language package export.

    In my opinion, if we wan to INJECT LANGUAGE PACK WITH DISM, this guide is helpful.

    Is it possible for ordinary users to download Windows 10 language packs other than from the Windows store?
