Language changes are not applied to the first run of VSTA

Q:

After I installed VSTA and some language packs I changed the language by modifying “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VSTAHost\<hostid>\8.0\General\UILanguage.”

However, when I ran VSTA and it configured the environment for first time use, the language changed back to English. If I change the language again after this, subsequent runs of VSTA display the correct language. How can I make VSTA display the correct language at first run?

A:

When you change the “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VSTAHost\<hostid>\8.0\General\UILanguage”

also change “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VSTAHost\<hostid>\8.0\General\UILanguageFromSetup” to 0. This should fix the issue.
