Q.What languages does FolderClone work with?
A. FolderClone works with a variety of languages,
including
English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German, Russian,
Chinese,
Japanese, and others. However, the FolderClone software is
currently only
available in English, so you'll need to be able to understand English
to use
the software.
Working with files and folders whose names use a
different character set than the one you use to display menus and other text in
Windows may require you to change your system locale first. For
example, if you use Windows in English, but want to compare
folders with Russian names, you might need to change your system locale to
Russian. (Note that this will not be necessary with version 3 of
FolderClone which is currently under development.
This explains how to change the
system locale in Win2k,
WinXP,
and Vista & Windows 7 32 & 64bit.
Changing System Locale In Vista & Windows 7
Changing your system locale can
sometimes let
you work with files and folders whose names are in a different
language
from the one that you use Windows in. FolderClone is tested
in English, and
we can't guarantee that it will work in all other languages, but this
will
often help. Here's what you can do.
Note: This procedure may require
you to have
an administrator password for your computer. You may not be
able to
complete these instructions on a computer that you do not own.
1) Click the Start
button then select Control Panel
2) Click Clock, Language,
and Region,
then choose Regional and Language Options.
3) In the Regional and Language
Options
control panel click the Administrative tab.
4)
Click Change system locale. You may be
warned that this procedure
requires administrative privileges; if so, click Allow.
5)
From the list, choose the locale that best matches the language used in
the
file and folder names you want to work with. Then, click OK.
6)
You'll be asked to restart your computer. Click Restart
now.
Note: This change will affect all of
your Windows
programs. You may want to change your locale back when you're
finished.
In case that doesn't work: If none of the above helped, we may
not be
able to help you work with the files and sub-folder names that
are in the language you want. However,
the above instructions should work for most people.
