1. The Download Process: You cannot simply install a language pack on its own. It must be installed on top of an existing English installation of AutoCAD 2021. Users often mistake it for a standalone product, leading to confusion.

3. The installer will extract files to a temporary folder.
4. Accept the Autodesk license agreement.
5. The installer will automatically detect your existing AutoCAD 2021 installation path.
6. Click "Install" – this process typically takes 5–15 minutes depending on your SSD/HDD speed.

8. Restart your computer (Optional but highly recommended to clear command cache).
