App won't start

[yuriy_zubarev]

Greetings,

I have a Windows Form application (C#, .NET 1.1) that I distribute to
my clients and everyone can run it successfully but those who have
international versions of Windows XP (German, Norwegian, Russian, etc).
When they try to launch the app after an installation they get the
following:

Setup Error
Failed to load resources from resource file
Please check your setup

The problem is clearly related to different cultures and in my app I
only use invariant one explicitly and default one implicitly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Yuriy Zubarev

Hi Yuriy,
make sure if you are not already, that you set the CurrentUICulture for
the apps thread, this is the culture used to determine what resource files
are accessed in different cultures. If you did not set this then it will
default the the Culture of the logged in user, i.e. German if the user locale
is German.

The property you want to set is:

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICul ture

Hope that helps
