So Phill, did you have a chance to try any of these suggestions and/or WiX 3.8 to see if you can get the Burn wrapper .exe to launch correctly in the language of the OS? -- View this message in context:

Phill/Alnoor I had to make a few more adjustments to my code to match what you have, but it will still only launch in English when running on a French OS. If I use the command line option -lang 1036 then the Burn wrapper will correctly show UI and License in French. So how do I get it to show

I am trying to solve that same issue, so I do not have a solution yet. I was in the process of importing the 'extended bootstrapper' and writing a BAFunction.dll to try and get the language of the UI to be the same as the OS UserLanguageID and also address an issue where I need to restrict which

Okay thanks, If 3.8 does correctly detect OS language and launch Burn wrapper in detected language then that should solve part of that issue. As for your 2nd issue, are you talking about conditioning your MsiPackage so that it will only use your supportted language .mst's that you need to pass to

Yes, we support seven languages. If I pass UserLanguageID or SystemLanguageID in my var LCID and then pass it as a property to the MSI package in the form of TRANSFORMS=LCID.mst all is well for the supported languages, however an unsupported language results in an error because the transform does

I assume that your (Neil's) description of the WiX language detection behavior applies to 3.8, because I have not observed that behavior with WiX 3.7. For me with 3.7 I always have to use -lang LCID to see any of my supported bundle translated strings. So far I have only tested using Windows 8

Hi Phil, Glad to help, and thanks for the suggestions. It does make sense to localize the theme itself, though I have not done so yet. Did you try it? Alnoor -- View this message in context:

My experiments so far do not work. I added: Payload Id=themeXml_de_de Compressed=yes Name=1031\HyperlinkTheme.xml SourceFile=theme\1031\HyperlinkTheme.xml/ And made various changes to only that xml file, but so far it has not picked it up. I was just starting to read through the source code,

Cool, thanks. If worst comes to worst, I'll just fire up Process Monitor again and watch the file system activity to see what files the bootstrapper is looking for (and not finding.) Somehow, that feels more fun than wading through source code. Alnoor -- View this message in context:
