Weird characters language selection dialog
Hi all,

We want to display all available languages in our installer, the problem with that is: unsupported languages are displayed with weird characters in the selection list. For example, if we set the system to English, some Eastern languages are displayed with weird characters in the selection list. Is there any way to display it properly?

I know I would able to display only supported languages by comment out:
MUI_LANGDLL_ALLLANGUAGES

See attached screenshot.

Thanks!


Ansi or unicode NSIS? Ansi version requires the correct codepage to be active on the machine (So setting MUI_LANGDLL_ALLLANGUAGES is probably not a good idea)


How would you verify Ansi or unicode NSIS?
Would unicode NSIS display properly?

Thanks!


by default nsis is ansi, you need to search in the wiki or the forums for the unicode version of nsis.

Also, note the those strings are in chinese, either you computer has the chinese langpack or try to use indeed the unicode version.

good luck.
