Wrong language in close confirmation dialogue - TC9.0a (X64)

[Heini]

Language is set to English.

When attempting to close a locked tab, the following dialogue appears:

[Title] Total Commander
[Message] This tab is locked! Close anyway?
[Options] "Ja" "Nein" "Abbrechen"

Obviously, the listed options are not in English.

Maybe other confirmation dialogues are affected as well.

What language is used by your Windows OS? Is it a German version by chance? If so, it would still be a bug of course, but giving this information could be helpful for Christian...

(I am running Win7 Pro x64 english and the dialog prompts for closing a locked tab appear correctly in English)

Not confirmed for a German OS with TC set to english language
The message and its options are fully english

[Stefan2]

Confirmed for a English OS (set to German language) with TC set to English language

Me think this "[Options]" language depends on set OS Region settings, as TC ask OS resources to display that message.

For me:
Systemgebietsschema / Sprache für Unicode-inkompatible Programme = Deutsch

With "Windows-display language": German (Austria) enabled under System Control\All System Control Elements\Language\Language Options
and TC 9.0a - 32 bit + 64 bit, Windows 10 Pro (x64) Version 1703 (Build 15063.332) I get the same as User Heini.

The result seems to depend on the setting of "Display Language" / "Anzeigesprache" in Windows. Windows version is 7 in my case. I obtained the results mentioned in the first post with display language set to German. If I change it to English the dialogue options are displayed in English as well.

Afaik this is a standard MessageBox(->MSDN) where the button text are always determined by the system language.
May be a good idea to switch to MessageBoxEx(->MSDN) which offers an additional parameter for customization:

wLanguageId [in]

Type: WORD

The language for the text displayed in the message box button(s). Specifying a value of zero (0) indicates to display the button text in the default system language. If this parameter is MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_NEUTRAL), the current language associated with the calling thread is used.

To specify a language other than the current language, use the MAKELANGID macro to create this parameter. For more information, see MAKELANGID.

also it may be a big effort to match the correct Language Identifiers(->MSDN) to all possible TC-language selections....

With TC 9.10ß1 - 32 bit + 64 bit you get "Yes" "No" "Cancel" in options dialog.

Thanks for trying it! Btw, MessageBoxEx did NOT work. Instead, I'm using a Windows hook and set the button texts from the lng file.
