Description
If you install Windows 10 using the VirtualBox unattended setup, the guest OS will have US region and US keyboard. You can change the region manually after setup, but changing the keyboard requires an internet connection which you may not want to give to the guest OS.
there is a related forum post https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?p=528774
but no answers to it.
most relevant part of unattended.xml is
<InputLocale>en-US</InputLocale>
but
<SystemLocale>en-US</SystemLocale> <UserLocale>en-US</UserLocale>
may need to be considered for a convenient unattened setup as well
