I believe I have fixed this with the extended BA I wrote and then I applied the same code to WiX 3.8 - so the options would be to use WiX 3.8 or the extended BA but reading Phil's comments regarding Windows 8 there may be more to it.

I am running WiX 3.7 on Win 7 64 bit the problem is that when I have the System OS set to French, the current language that I have been testing, and run the burn wrapper .exe the burn UI will only appear in English. When I add the -lang 1036 to the command line then the burn UI and license file will correctly show in French. Now looking at Phill's latest comments I also set the English UI strings in the payload as well as on the bal element entries. The main sections of code shown below: <BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense"> <bal:WixStandardBootstrapperApplication LicenseFile="$(var.PROJECT_ROOT)\EULAs\Toolkit\en\License.rtf" ThemeFile="CustomUI\RtfTheme.xml" LocalizationFile="$(var.PROJECT_ROOT)\EULAs\Toolkit\en\RtfTheme.wxl" LogoFile="table_toolkit_app_for_WiX.png" /> <PayloadGroupRef Id="RtfTheme_licenses"/> <PayloadGroupRef Id="RtfTheme_Strings"/> </BootstrapperApplicationRef> So if there is a bug in WiX 3.7 that corrects for this and therefore works in 3.8 then we'll have to look into upgrading, but if there is a fix for 3.7 or something that I am missing to get the Burn UI to correctly show in the System Language then I would appreciate the help. So if you have this working on serveral languages then were you using WiX 3.7 and if so then can you supply a small sample code that I can compare to mine and test to see if I can get it working? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/My-experiences-making-a-multi-language-bundle-tp7208949p7587991.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
