Francisco, When you get it working with the transform msiexec /i installer.msi TRANSFORMS=":1034". (I'm wondering about the ":1034" - should be e.g. 1034.mst???) this means it is working with your produced spanish transform applied to the english one. So when going back to InstallSite your problems can result in problems in step 3. or 4. .
In general and why I don't like this approach very much: you must rely on the way here this undocumented feature retrieves the current OS language. If something goes wrong here it is difficult to track down the real issue. So did you try the package on several spanish systems ? Btw: Spanish if I remember right this is the OS where the LCID is 1034 and additionally other LCIDs exist. Maybe that causes problems in detecting a spanish OS with these embedded transforms. Read http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/LCIDs-of-the-supported-languages-of-WixUIExtension-tp5910168p5910168.html So maybe use some other language first to track down the problem and set the OS language as described in InstallSite. I'd recommend you to use e.g. German and 1031 for your testing. Please do exactly following: 1. Build the MSI + transform 2. test it with msiexec /i setup.msi TRANSFORMS=1031.mst If working 3. embed the transform with wisubstg.vbs Setup.msi 1031.mst 1031 4. ORCA: View -> Summary Information... -> there change Languages to "1033,1031" (without quotes and without empty spaces between the numbers) and save the package afterwards) Change the computer language of the system to German (Gerrmany) as described on InstallSite. If still not working: Interesting is the output of step 3. Please post it here. Be aware that you work exactly on the generated packages and no dirty ones where possibly something went wrong... Regarding Arabic: Think of only localize text and not "RTL" the UIs. One of our arabic speaking guys told me that these people are used of not well RTL modified UIs. If you still want to do so: Get an installShield demo (they offer well RTL layout, think only the graphic on the start dlg and finish dialog is turned) and modify the WiX dialogs in WiX sources folder src\ext\UIExtension\wixlib (approx 25 - 30 dialogs and User Interface "sequences"). Think it should be possible here as well to embed a transform for the modifications even here this transform then contains a completely modified UI. But as never done also expect some issues when transforming with a torch generated transform for arabic (not sure whether -t Language is enough). As already stated think of using a bootstrapper for the language transform application (e.g. dotnetinstaller) instead of the embedded approach. regards Tobias 2011/3/17 Francisco Gabriel Malbrán <fgmalb...@gmail.com>: > Thanks Michael.
