Hello,

You can't. That dialog is embedded into the bootstrapper and it cannot be customized.

All the best,

Sorry Dima, unfortunately that list is programatically populated and there're no customization options available.

Why do you want to change it?

All the best,
Mihai

Dear Mihai,

Because we want to change descriptions of some languages. E.g. Thai is unsupported by installer, but our software supports it. So we could write for language dropdown: "Thai(Software only)"

Regards, Dima.

Hello Dima,

Please keep in mind that you can translate the installer strings for any new language including Thai. Here's Translating and using a new language tutorial to help you.

All the best,

In the years that have passed, has there been any submission of Thai translation? 18.6.1 doesn't seem to have it yet, so I'm wondering if it's still in the pipeline. If it is, do you have ETA of it landing in a build? If not, we'll proceed to w/ the translation. I'm just asking here first so we don't duplicate the work.

Hello,

From what I can see, this has not yet been added.

I believe most of the string translations from Advanced Installer was done with the help of our users, in exchange of an AI license or a Maintenance Plan extensions (more details in the "Can you translate MSI strings in other languages?" thread).

If you guys are willing to give this a try and want to share the resulted dictionary with us (by e-mail at support at advancedinstaller dot com) so we can add this in Advanced Installer, we will be glad to extend your Maintenance Plan with 1 year.

Best regards,
Catalin
