Installing AppLocale in Retail Version of Windows 7 64bit Posted on March 1, 2010 by WEN Although I am not using it very often, but I did this installation for a follow up purpose of my previous article in AppLocale installation in Windows 7. Microsoft has never updated Microsoft AppLocale since the release of Windows Vista. AppLocale is a very useful program that allows user to run and view a non-unicode applicaiton software in different language locale with proper character.
AppLocale is not supported under anything but XP and 2003, but here's a potential workaround. From.here is another workaround that do not need you to take security risk by disabling UAC. Run an elevated command prompt by right clicking on Command Prompt on Start Menu and then select “Run as Administrator”. Click on Continue when User Account Control dialog prompt comes out. Change directory to the folder where you put the apploc.msi Windows Installer Package. Type apploc.msi to start the setup.
The AppLocale installation will complete successfully. This should work for Windows 7 as well. Additionally, to prevent troubles when running stuff via AppLocale ('AppLocale was unable to launch the specified application. Please make sure the application specified is valid.'

) you'll have to: To set AppLoc.exe to run as administrator permanently, simply right click on AppLoc.exe executable, select Properties. Then click on Compatibility tab, and finally tick the check box for Run this program as an administrator option under 'Privilege Level' section. Click OK when done.
Also, depending on your version of Windows 7, you can also change the settings to the language you desire:. Open Regional and Language Options by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Clock, Language, and Region, and then clicking Regional and Language Options. Click the Keyboards and Languages tab. Under Display language, choose a language from the list, and then click OK. It seems you need to run one or more applications in a different language of the system default. For that you could use a different user of the system to run that applications you need in a different language.
Create a new local user. Log in with that user and change the Windows language of that account to the other language you need. Log out. Log in with your usual user. Run the application you want to see in a different language with the 'Run As' method (shift+right click on the application, and select Run as different User).
