Windows 10 Japanese OS to English language?

How effective is the language change setting on Windows 10? I would like to have an English OS, but the computers I'm looking at are offered only with Japanese Windows 10.

I'm looking to buy a new computer, but, being in Japan, options for English language OS are few and far between. Currently, I'm looking at a Dell Inspiron (I've had good experiences with Dell in the past), and, after a chat with their support, they said that the option for English OS is only available with their XPS series (which is fine and nice, but also several hundreds of dollars more expensive, and frankly more than I need).

I've heard Windows 10 has done a much better job of allowing display language change than previous editions, but I would like to know how deep it goes into the OS, which I can't seem to find online. If, for example, I have to wrestle with things in the control panel (ah... printer settings), will those still end up being in Japanese? I guess being stuck with a Japanese OS pc won't kill me, but it would be nice to be able to have it all in English, if that's possible.

(Note, I know Apple does this much better, and has for years, but I'm not looking for an Apple computer at the moment.)
