[izpack-users] Installationdirectory on international versions of Windows is always "Program Files"

[Markus Schlegel]

Hi
 
I encontered, that IzPack does not read the "ProgramsFolder" from Windows.
Instead it has a propertiesfile with values for each Language.
 
Unfortunately, many large and/or international companies do not install a specific Language of Windows anymore.
However, they install a Multilingual version and one or more Languagepacks. In such an Installation, the ProgramsFolder is always "Program Files" - no matter which Language is actually set.
 
Since IzPack determines the ProgramFiles Folder from the current Language, this is wrong on such systems.
IzPack really has to read out the correct value from Windows.
 
Is there any chance to get this fixed, or do I have to fix it myself (dumb question, I think)?
 
Regards
Markus
