I haven't found a way to do it with a single msi that is supported. The 
approach I take is to not embed the files in your MSI but put them in an 
external cab file. Then I build each language variant, as they only contain the 
install code and not the files they tend to be quite small. I then use a 
bootstrapper that loads the appropriate MSI for the current language.

Subject: [WiX-users] multiple languages in single installer




                Hello,

                I understand how WIX can generate N installer for N different 
language files, which is really great.  I was wondering however if there is any 
functionality to combine N language files into a single installer, that would 
detect user or system locale at run time.  Any help or pointers would be 
awesome, thanks much.
