Re: WDSC 7 AE - Install language ?

Peter,

There's indeed some code in the GetLocale.bat about the browser as well, but 
that's not the issue neither (browser has en-us, nl-BE, fr-BE).

Anyway, after some digging I found in Control Panel - Regional and Language 
Options - Advanced Tab the setting "Language for non-Unicode programs" which 
seems to control the installation manager.

After having changed that one to English (for some mysterious reason it was set 
to French) it was fine.

While the whole language defaulting process is far from transparent, at least 
changing the dropdown in Launchpad should control the Installation Manager as 
well !

Kind regards,
Paul

Paul,

I think you need to change something in your internet exploder settings.

Look in Control panel / internet options / General tab / languages.

I have English (United Kingdom) [en-uk] above Dutch (Belgium) [nl-be]

When I only had nl-be there, sometimes programs would insist on installing 
in Dutch (ewwwww).

[WDSCI-L] WDSC 7 AE - Install language ?






Hi,

I just downloaded WDSC 7 AE from Partnerworld and when I try to install it 
(via Launchpad.exe) it always starts in French ?  I already figured out 
that this is done by the GetLocale.bat which is wrong in my opinion (as it 
reads the wrong setting in the registry).

Anyway, since Launchpad allows the language to be selected, I changed the 
dropdown to English, but again if you continue the installer runs in 
French ?  In order to force this, I changed the GetLocale.bat so that 
Launchpad now starts in English... but again, this changes nothing to the 
actual installer which insists on French :-(

Final attempt so far was to change the registry but again the installer 
shows up in French so it seems he's reading yet another registry value ?

How can I force my install to English ?

Kind regards,
Paul

BTW.  Less than 50% in Belgium speaks French... so I'm not happy at all 
being defaulted to French (not that I'm planning to install it in Dutch 
neither).
