You have to go to the registry and change the value of the environment
variable "Lang" to "de_DE". In contrary the installer I mentioned above
uses a file named "lyx.bat" to set LyX's menu language. You can easily
change there the value of "Lang".
That is incorrect. The official installer doesn't set any system
environment variables, it has it's own registry setting for the language
in Software\LyX14\Settings. To change it you can also run the installer
again without reinstalling any files.
This crash/language problem is unrelated to the installer. It looks like
the combination of updated libraries / C++ runtime somehow triggers a
bug, possibly in gettext. I have not yet been able to reproduce it (it
works fine on all my systems), so it may be difficult to debug. I'll try
to find a solution.
