Windows 8.1 Multilanguage OS and Store language

Hi everyone, I'll try to explain my problem the best I can:
I am trying to deploy a Windows 8.1 image using ConfigMgr 2012 R2. The image is configured as a multilingual image using French (Default) and English.
My deployment is working fine and I am using the Unattend.xml file to set the language settings to either FR-CA, FR-FR (UILanguage).
My problems are the following:
Modern App are showing in English.
Windows Store is displayed in English.
I did found that if you go to Control Panel\Clock, Language and Region\Language there is bot English and French language displayed there.
The language listed at the top will define the language the Windows Store will use when installing Apps and the language displayed. So if French is at the top, the store will be in French.
My problem is that even if I am setting all the languages in the Unattend.xml to either FR-FR or FR-CA, the store will remain in English unless I manually place the French at the top in the control panel.
There is the HKCY\Control Panel\Desktop\PreferredUILanguages key that will also define that setting.
To make this automated, there is the GPO called Restricts the UI Languages Windows should use for the selected user that I can use, the problem with this setting is that it will restrict the language with no possible way to revert to English which will ruin
my effort for a Multilanguage image that the user can decide.
Anyway, my question is, I am missing something about how to set the language? Is there any other setting that I can use in the unattended.xml to set the PreferredUILanguages key or do I have to use either two different policies or set it by using GPP?
Thank you all for your help!
Mathieu
Edit: I tried using the GPP setting with no success. The way I am looking at this behavior seem a bit buggy. When manually selecting stuff, the setting is right but setting it programmatically, this is not.
When selecting English manually, all the user's interface is in English, when doing the same thing manually for French no problem. With a freshly deployed image, settings seems rights except the part I am talking about.

Like I said I did tried the XML on a deployed computer I am using this command Control intl.cpl,, /F:"Path to file"
The file content is this one:
<gs:GlobalizationServices xmlns:gs="urn:longhornGlobalizationUnattend">
<!--User List-->
<gs:UserList>
<gs:User UserID="Current">
</gs:User>
<!--Display Language-->
<gs:MUILanguagePreferences>
<gs:MUILanguage Value="fr-FR">
<gs:MUIFallback Value="en-US">
</gs:MUIFallback>
</gs:MUILanguage>
</gs:MUILanguagePreferences>
</gs:UserList>
</gs:GlobalizationServices>
On a live computer I do not get any result and there is nothing in the event viewer neither.
Is there a way you could test or validated with my file?

  • TS1424 HELLO! whenever i try to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop i get this message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is availabl

    for a few weeks i have not been able to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop. every time i click on it it tells me it cannot access the store...not sure why. and says this: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.

    I had this exact same problem.  I found this fix and it worked for me. 
    Step 1:
    Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll. 
    Step 2:
    Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
    Hope this helps you.  I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
    Good Luck.

  • I tunes under windows 7 cannot connect to the store and cannot download podcasts

    I am using itunes under windows 7.
    Since December 20, I cannot download podcasts and itunes cannot connect to the store.
    I am getting the error message that an unknown error 310 has appeared.
    I have reinstalled itunes and all apple programs on my laptop, without success.
    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

    Do other dictionaries work if you select them in the Languages menu?

    Users do not have control over the language of the Mac App Store or iTunes stores for a particular country or region. It is what it is and can't be changed.

    You can't, Anh.  That's what people are telling you.  At this time there's no way to get out of recovery mode.   You're playing around with beta software and this is what you get.
    Tell your "developer friend" he needs to talk to other developers to see if this can be fixed, or have him replace your devices that you should never have let him play with to begin with.

  • Windows Apps Not Launching and Store Not Functioning (with logs).. to do with "Local AppData"

    I keep my "Local AppData" folder along with a handful of other settings folders on a separate SSD so I can format monthly without losing a beat.

  • App Store language - A personal Plea to Apple

    Like Millions of people around the world I live in a country where i don't speak the local language fluently. In fact where I live in Spain there are in the region of 1 million ex pats living.
    I switched from PC to MAC because the OS has multilanguage support and I could switch my spanish bought iMAC to english rather than have to send off to the UK or US for a copy and do a re-install.
    When it comes to the APP Store I cannot get it in any other language than Spanish. As a result I don't buy anything.
    For this very reason I didn't get an iPhone but went for an android device where the app store is multilingual
    For this very reason I didn't Buy an Ipad.
    I've seen lots of threads on here where expats can't access the local store in their own language...
    Why not adopt the policy that Amazon has with kindle where you can request to switch the location of your kindle store?
    This policy is costing Apple money isn't it time it was changed??

    I absolutely second that.
    After the language change of local iTunes stores last year many users have tried and requested to be able to keep the English language. And obviously have been completely ignored.
    The same goes for local Apple websites and their online store.
    Both are still frequently poorly translated - for me in German (I am not in/from Germany, but the content prominently is...)it is also offensive to be informally addressed as Du and with my first name rather than my last or full name.
    That is for a target group 13-19 with no language skills and no foreign descent.
    Having the great possibility of that - best of all OS - multilingual MacOS and then being forced to use monolingual interweb-tools is embarrassing.
    Regression to the mean is natural, regression to a lowest standard seems unnecessary for a company with the success history of Apple.

  • Read Registry Keys and store it in Inventory DB

    Hallo together,
    I am looking for a program to extract some Registry keys into the ZENworks 7 inventory database.
    I know I need to create a CUSTOM.INI and fill it with values. When I create the CUSTOM.INI by hand I got it to work to store the values in the inventory database.
    But I need a program to read the Registry values and store them in the CUSTOM.ini file with the correct syntax.
    A Script or any other small program would be helpful. I know how I could read the Registry values with REG.exe but I do not know how to store the values in the correct syntax in CUSTOM.ini?
    I found zRegScan but I did not get it to work. I found out that the Program is called by the Inventory process (it appears in the TaskManager for a short time). When I run zRegScan by hand (or with a manual launched ZfDInvScanner.exe) I get the following error windows:
    Title: zRegScan.exe - Common Language Runtime Debugging Services
    Warning: Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. Process id=0x814, Thread id=0xf14
    When I click "Cancel" I receive a 2nd Window:
    Title: zRegScan.exe - No debugger found.
    Warning: Registered JIT debugger is not available. An atempt to launch a JIT debugger with ...
    I tried for several hours to get it operational - with no success.
    The zRegScan.log does not show anything helpful.
    I have WinXP SP2 and SP3 machines and ZfD7ir3a.
    Thanks for your help

  • Windows Defender will not start after injecting Language Pack

    Hi
    I have started creating a new Windows 8.1 image for deployment to a new series of computers. When I am in audit mode installing programs, Windows Defender works fine. After sysprep and offline injection of Language Pack (da-dk) Windows Defender user
    interface is not able to start.
    Error message:
    An error has occurred in the program during initialization. If this problem continues, please contact your system administrator. Error code: 0x80073b01.
    Both Windows defender services is running and I can even run commands with MpCmdRun.exe from a command prompt. The issue seems to be with the language of the UI.
    Is there something I need to do with Windows Defender when I install language packs?

  • Subtitles and Stories

    I am having some issues with subtitles and stories. I have a multi language DVD in which subtitles are to be shown over the non-English versions. The English version does not require subtitles. I authored the DVD so no subtitles will be shown when the viewer selects the English version. But, in some players a subtitle stream is displayed during playback.
    In DVDSP I have one video track with multiple stories. Each story is for a language. The viewer first selects which language they desire, then they go to a menu written in that language's characters. The buttons on those secondary menus link to the stories. Each menu's button has been assigned to the appropriate subtitle stream and "View" is checked. However for English, which does not need subtitles, I linked the buttons to an empty subtitle stream and unchecked "View."
    Using the Simulator I read the log and see that the SPRM 2 value for English is "0." In the DVDSP manual that is listed as meaning "off." That is good and all subtitles play back as intended including English during which no subtitles are seen.
    The problem is that when playing a burned DVD in some players, the English story has a subtitle stream (the contents of subtitle stream 1 on one player, and another older player displays stream 3). On other players the DVD plays fine and no subtitles are visible during the English video.
    Why is a subtitle stream being shown when the DVD commands say to not display subtitles?

    Thank you for the reply. This is an aggravating issue and an unforeseen one since my testing regimen included a high quality player, a low quality player, and Windows & Mac software players. No play back issues were noted. But since there are so many different players out there it is hard to know how compatible a DVD will be. And I've now seen it first hand. I took the DVD to an electronics store and tried it on a five portable DVD players. Two displayed subtitles during the English video (incorrect playback), while three played the DVD properly (no subtitles during English). The more expensive players were better able to follow the commands of the DVD.
    Anyway...
    I followed the info in your web links. The step by step tutorial for authoring with stories did not remedy the issue. I tried following the first link that talks about scripting but found it to be above my current level of knowledge.
    I would appreciate more precise help on how to script links to subtitles & stories? The main issue is how to turn off subtitle streams for the English story. By using the advanced button controls I can activate proper subtitles displays on the foreign language stories without issue. The problem is trying to tell DVD players to shut off all subtitle streams when the English story is selected.
    I think scripting could help, but it's hard to understand since I haven't done much of it yet.
