Language detection

Hello,
how can I let NSIS detect which language is given by the system?
And can I use this information to select/deselect some InstallOptions? (For example some translations for an application)

;1033 == English

StrCmp $LANGUAGE 1033 0 +2

WriteINIStr "IOfile.ini" "Field X" "State" "1" ;select check-box

Thank you,
but how do I use this piece of code?
I'm sorry 🙁

Ok, I now know how to use it.
But it does nothing.
No Section is selected or deselected if I write "0" instead if "1"

This is my code:

Function .onInit
  StrCmp $LANGUAGE 1033 0 +2
  WriteINIStr "IOfile.ini" "Group En" "State" "1" ;select check-box
FunctionEnd
SubSection /e "En / Ger" SEC00
 Section /o "Group En" SEC01
 SectionEnd
 Section /o "Group Ger" SEC02
 SectionEnd
SubSectionEnd 

A long time did a multilanguage installer... with some of your code & mine:

SetCompressor lzma

XPStyle on



Name "Lobo Lunar"

OutFile "Test.exe"

BrandingText "Lobo Lunar"

InstallDir "$EXEDIR"

ShowInstDetails show



Page components

Page instfiles



SubSection "Languages"



Section /o "English" english

; Put stuff

SectionEnd



Section /o "Other" other

; More stuff

SectionEnd



SubSectionEnd



Function .onInit

StrCmp $LANGUAGE 2058 ENG OTHER



ENG:

SectionSetFlags ${english} 1

Goto Exit



OTHER:

WriteINIStr "$EXEDIR\myini.ini" "LANG" "ID" "1"

SectionSetFlags ${other} 1



Exit:

FunctionEnd

Thank you, I'm testing the script now.
/edit: Works great your script!

Great! 👍

As you can see, SectionSetFlags is your man 🙂

This will check the language selected for the installation. This might not be the OS language. How can I detect the language of the operating system!?

As far as I know, $LANGUAGE will contain the OS language unless you change it via LangDLL
