@yan: First, you type cd "[directory]" where [directory] is the location your applocale file is in (for example, cd "C:\USERS\USER\Downloads"). Then, you type apploc.msi to run the file.

By changing system language locale which is normally set to same language as Windows itself to application’s native language, the garbled and gibberish text displayed can be shown properly if the correct locale code page is selected. Cambiando la lingua del sistema locale che normalmente è impostata su stessa lingua di Windows per sé l’applicazione della lingua madre……..

What do you mean by that? I’m only 15 and honestly, I thought I knew about computers. Care to explain what this means? Probably something simple.Thanks.

Change directory to the folder where you put the apploc.msi Windows Installer Package.

[...] 繁体中文的游戏，乱码一直是个大问题。在Windows XP系统下，Microsoft AppLocale使用起来还是相当灵光的。不过，AppLocale在X64版本（64位）的Vista下无法安装！正常安装到最后一步总会显示有问题，安装不成功。一般来说，程序不能运行，可以用“以管理员身份运行”的方式来解决（当然，也不是百分之百的能解决）。不过，AppLocale的安装包是”.msi”的，没有这个选项。这个时候有两种办法：第一，关闭“用户帐户控制”；第二，用这篇文章提到的方法——简单的来说，就是从“开始菜单”中的“附件”内找到“命令提示符”，再用右键点击选择“以管理员身份运行”，然后用“命令提示符”打开Applocale的安装文件的位置并运行，一切就OK了！其实，Vista还是不错的，64位的兼容性也没有那么恐怖（可恨，谷歌输入法还是不支持64位）。32位系统由于内存大小的限制已经到了发展的极限。只要用64位系统的人多了，软件提供商都会主动修改自己的程序。从这个角度来说，推动64位系统的发展，还要靠我们这样的普通用户！ Share: These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages.
