This page enables you to create a locale-specific OS image. The options that are available depend on the type of OS you create.

Note

Locale settings do not persist if you change the build type from Debug to Release, or from Release to Debug. You must reset the locale settings individually each time you change the build type.

  • Language Packs to Build
    Displays the language packs of locales for which you can localize your OS design.

    If you select a locale, and an available default ANSI and OEM code page is associated with the locale, the code page is placed into your OS design. At least one value must be selected.

    You can add and remove language packs from the default selection. Click the ellipsis button (), and then, in the Language Packs to Build dialog box, select the check box next to each locale that you want to include in your OS design.

    For information about the available locales, see Language Identifiers.

  • Default UI Language
