Regional settings with NetDCU Config Utility

  • Hello,


    how can i set the regional Settings :

    Your locale to "German (Germany)"

    and input Language to "Deutsch"


    tis is the only one setting that we must set in the Control Panel per Hand


    I don't find any information to set this in the Registry.

  • Hello,


    there are a lot of locations concerning MUI and NLS in Registry. But i assume following should work:


    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\preload]

    "Default"=string:00000407


    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\control panel\international]

    "LocaleName"=string:de-DE

    "Locale"=string:407


    Note: NDCUCfg should be also able to read win-reg-commands. If you translate the commands above to ndcucfg-notation: "reg opencu \" opens HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Caution, a string containing a space character have to put into quotation marks!

    Sample:

    reg opencu \

    reg open "keyboard layout"

    ...

  • Hello,


    thanks for the hints,


    the Key

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\preload]

    "Default"=string:00000407

    works, this is the Input Language.


    but the Key

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\control panel\international]

    "LocaleName"=string:de-DE

    "Locale"=string:407

    dont exist (WINCE6 V3.00)

  • Hello,


    indeed you are right in a clean Registry i saw this key is not available (in contrast to Windows Embedded Compact 7). But what happens if you adjust regional setting "German" by Control Panel". Is the key "Control Panel\international" available afterwards? If yes you can create the key by your sript.


    Another but roundabout way to find the right location may be to export Registry to your host before and after the adjustment. Then you can compare the two Registry files using a tool like winmerge.

  • Hello,


    fine that it works now, and thanks for the Information about the nls key.


    FYI: one "reg save" on the end of registry script is sufficent.
