Change default language on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows

I always forgot how to change the language on ubuntu, my windows knows that I’m Italian even if my operating system is set to be in English, and installs the bash on ubuntu on windows in Italian 😦 so I always need to do these steps:

  1. Install the language pack you want

    sudo apt-get install language-pack-en language-pack-en-base manpages

  2. Change the default language

    sudo update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF8
