Problems with localised installers (hebrew)

Hi
I'm trying to build installers for English, Hebrew versions of our software. I have made a merge module for the core files and then build seperate projects for English and Hebrew versions. The hebrew version includes files with hebrew characters in the file names. The merge module includes translations for both English and Hebrew. The Hebrew installer has been created as a Hebrew project. When I try to install I get an error message shown below. On Control pannel/Regional options, the language for non-unicode programs is set to Hebrew both during build and test.

Re: Problems with localised installers (hebrew)

Hello,

If you wish to localize the name of a folder, you should use a public property formatted reference for its name in a "Directory Set with Formatted" custom action.
After doing this, you can easily localize that property's value by following this user guide article.

All the best,
