The install-time language dialog box on Windows is just for the installer’s UI. 
All of the GnuCash and Gtk translations are included in the 
gnucash-xx-setup.exe.

From the screenshot it looks like you’re unable to get GnuCash to give you 
Portuguese no matter what: Setting LANG=pt_PT in the environment file would 
override the system locale setting.

Is there anything in the trace file? (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile)

John Ralls
