info version
hello,

I use the official version 2b4 to make a English-German-French installation.
I use the functions VIProductVersion and VIAddVersionKey to put infos on the version.
I have a problem with the languages by defect, it appears in German, without I informing it.

how to modify it?

Windows detects itself the language in which to show the version information, you can't control it as the installer isn't necessarily running when the user checks the version information. If you want to force a certain language, don't add version info using the other languages. You don't have to put language info in every language used by the installer, one is enough.

thank you for your answer. :D

all the texts of the install are in 3 languages, but the infos of the file into 1 only.
I still do not understand why in German.

but if I understood well one cannot modify it... :(

You choose the language to put the text in, you can add it in English if you want. Nothing forces you to use German. For example:

VIProductVersion "1.2.3.4"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "ProductName" "Test Application"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "Comments" "A test comment"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "CompanyName" "Fake company"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "LegalTrademarks" "Test Application is a trademark of Fake company"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "LegalCopyright" "© Fake company"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "FileDescription" "Test Application"
VIAddVersionKey /LANG=${LANG_ENGLISH} "FileVersion" "1.2.3"
