Compiling An Installation
Note
This page is fully enabled in a .WSI only. In an .MSI or .MST, you cannot add or delete.
Normally, when you compile an installation containing multiple languages, a separate
.MSI or .MST is created for each language. However, you can create a single installation
that contains multiple languages, and either automatically installs in the destination
computer's language or prompts the end user to select a language. To create a multiple
language installation, you must create a release that compiles to an .EXE file.
To output a multiple-language release
1.
On the Releases page, create a release to contain the multiple languages.
