    Guess you are right. :) Anyway, I left the check in my copy since it provides a reminder that the file needs to be edited for 100% proper functionality.

    Yes, that'll be fine when Trilogy (English) is final and complete. BTW, what's left to do?

    Kindly don't do this. As I noted above, it will only make the file even more complex and prone to failure, plus there are so many languages to support, and you might need to keep editing if further language conflicts arise. Only 1 language per file please! Don't you think that's best? :)

    I'm hoping just the office checks

    If we did it right why would it fail? It'd be nice to have this international version. It's only like 22 KB now but instructions are still in english so I think we should just leave it

    I'm just tired of the whole thing as basically everything worked a while back but I wanted to do perfect error checking so I made more work for myself plus you guys pointing out stuff to fix which is fine I'm just tired that's all

    I made some changes to the script and now it's working
    Adding "if" lines we can extend the detection ability.
    BUT
    I do not think it is convenient to develop a system to detect the system language of the PC where the script runs, it is much easier to change the 12 lines of code where this problem occours and save the file as Trilogy v1.9 EN.cmd , Trilogy v1.9 DE.cmd, Trilogy v1.9 ITA.cmd , and so on.

    The Trilogy compilation ..... :D

    Which is precisely why i said that you shouldn't bother adding umpteen languages to it! Just finalize it and let others contribute their translations if they want, and you can add those to the first post. You've done enough already and everyone thanks you for it I'm sure. :)

    Yes, this is what I am suggesting as well. :)

    P.S. It should be "ENU" for English (US). I typed "ENN" by mistake.

    using the same method as the hosts checking and entry adding should work for modding the languages, say a second bat run first will check the system language then edit the trilogy bat accordingly, don't know if you can edit a bat in use but you might be able to as the part of the bat in question will appear after the language check.

    Well I'm off so I appreciate the coding. I think we could do variable so every language is detected and thus correct status, languages and whatever else would read correctly for whatever nationality but I want to finish it first so lets focus on finalizing then language issue

    Thanks Trilogy team :shisha:...lol

    Tested on my brother's pc and in every situation everything is working fine: without office, with office retail and with office volume. With respect to office checks, i think it's finalized.

    I can contribute with portuguese-brazil implementation. let's go ahead...:cool:

    Post the whole updated Trilogy in code that you say it is working regarding IORRT so others can see and try. I just want to make universally sure cause it's a pain to redo stuff. Then I will decide if to do language stuff later

    It is not working if the entire boot drive is encrypted with Truecrypt. After the restart it boots into recovery mode but then I cannot choose any Windows installation. If I decrypt the drive it is working fine though.

    Your suppose to look for cmd prompt and enter C:IR5

    IR5 only not works rarely when you mess with boot stuff so keep it normal and IR5 will work fine!

    As I said, I cannot choose any Windows installation when rebooting in recovery mode and so I don't reach the command prompt...

    Treucrypt whole disc encryption is not "messing with boot stuff"... I just wanted to mention it, maybe somebody finds a solution then.

    I have a problem to install this tool on Win 7 installations that are on a VHD.
    I don't mean a vhd within Virtual PC but a "native" vhd.

    When I install IR5 then it wants to boot into a "special windows" like it is described in the manual; but as it is only showing up my accounts of the standard install I see that it is not the "vhd-windows".
    So entering c:\IR5 has no effect on my VHD installations, they don't even seem to be mounted at that point.

    What should I do to rearm a windows on a native VHD image if this reboot procedure doesn't work?
