Language for non-unicode programs. Bug?

[syuzh]

Hi,

I cut back on a lot of things in my nlited install, but I kept the languages I needed intact. Everytime I want to change the; "language for non-unicode programs", it prompts me to insert the Windows XP disc just to copy 1 file over. Depending on the language, it chooses stuff like "app850.fo_" or "app932.fo_" and things like that. Problem is, I already have the files on the computer. But it just keeps prompting me to get that file, every.single.time I change the language.

Example: I set the language to English (United States), it prompts for app850.fo_ from the WinXP disc. I browse to it, get the file, done.

Now, I change it to English (Canada), it prompts for a similar file again. appxxx.fo_ from the WinXP disc. I browse to it, copy the file, and done.

Change it back to English (United States), and again, it asks for that app850.fo_.

So, what component did I remove that screwed this up? Or was it because I chose the "delete same files" option. The one where it deletes all the .fo_ because there's already .fon ones (or the other way around).

Or perhaps there's a manual way to fix this? It didn't do this before; when I changed languages, it just changed languages, no prompts or anything.

Any help is appreciated.

syuzh, it sounds like you have identified the problem. Set 'Remove duplicate files' to Disabled and see if it corrects the problem. The manual way to fix this is to create the xxx.fo_ files from the xxx.fon files. Open a command prompt and type makecab and your source file, it will create a xxx.fo_ file. Use the /? switch or Google to see the various switches/options. Enjoy, John.

Edit: This may just be the way it is. I did a search of the old machine I run on and never had nLite run on the install disk, and I have NO .FO_ files at all, except the ones in my CD files/folders I run nLite against. Windows might always ask for the the CD. John.
