MUI: Cannot select any languages in "Regional and Langague Options"

[Sensorflo]

I try to include MUI support into my run-time image. I followed
microsofts tutorial which I found at MSDN Home > MSDN Library >
Mobile and Embedded Development > Embedded Operating System
Development > Windows XP Embedded > Technical Articles > Adding
Multiple Language Support in a Windows XP Embedded.

When I boot the image, in the "Regional and Langague Options"
"Languages" tab, there are no languages to choose from. Clicking on
the Details button has no effect. Changing the language within the
"Advanced" tab does not change the language of the user interface.

The tutorial tells to check the "Include multilanguage user interface
resources" box within the Settings of the "<language> Language Support
component". There is no such box however. There is only a "Enable
multilanguage user interface for this component" within the advanced
tab. This one I checked of course.

I have Windows XP Embedded SP1, Version 2.00.0807.0.

Dear Sensorflo,

If you can't see "Include multilanguage user interface resources" in
language support component, it means that you never install MUI.

Please reference this page to get MUI and install it.

Otherwise, you need to make some changes in "Regional and Language
Options -> Setting"

Well, we had a similar problem - which turned into a really big bummer.
We included the, in our case, German language support before installing
the MUI resources. After installing and componetizing we found out that
there was no checkbox "Include multilanguage user interface resources".

Well, maybe we had to restart the Target Designer. Unfortunately this was
a bad decision. While the TD was shutting down there was an error about
some bad configuration (sorry - it was too cryptic to remember).
When the restarted TD was trying to load our project it showed another
error box: the configuration was missing a property called cmLangId -
then our project is closing, resulting in the same error as above :-(

So the project file (about 10MB binary data) was corrupt and is no longer
usable. Hence - be aware if you had local language support included in your
project before! Just delete it and reinsert it. That should do it.
