Introduction
Locale Emulator is a
tool similar to MS AppLocale and NTLEA, providing a simulation function
that can make an application recognize your OS as in a language other
than the real one. It is quite useful when you are trying to play
country-specific games.
Install
For a new installation
- Download the executable from any link above.
- Extract all files into a SAFE folder (because you will NOT be able to move these files after installation).
- Run LEInstaller.exe and press the "Install / Upgrade" button.
- Now you will see "Locale Emulator" menu in the context menu when right-clicking on files.
Upgrading from a previous version
- Download the executable from any link above.
- Extract all files into the same folder and overwrite all old files.
- Run LEInstaller.exe and press "Install / Upgrade" button.
- Now you will see "Locale Emulator" menu in the context menu when right-clicking on files.
System Requirement
Locale Emulator is compatible with the following OSes, both 32- and 64-bit:
- Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (Legacy support, see note below)
- Windows 8.1 (Legacy support, see note below)
- Windows 10
Due to my limited HDD space, effort and bandwidth, any issue related to Windows 7/8.1 will be ignored.
This tool only supports 32-bit executables running in either 32-bit or 64-bit OS. That is, if you are using 64-bit WinRAR, you will not see the context menu on a .rar file, and will not be able to run WinRAR with LE.

After checking antivirus software, Locale Emulator still fails.
