Hi Mihai,

Thanks for your reply.

My executable is a Windows Installer (MSI) "Custom Action".

From my research it appears that with a custom action spawned by MSI, GetUserDefaultLCID() and
GetUserDefaultUILanguage() return the country code of the .msi file not the users locale or language.

Running the executable as opposed to spawning from MSI results in the correct country code being returned.

Regards,

Jan
