For Chinese input languages and possibly other languages, there could be a problem where a new input language is added but does not appear on SoftXpand workstation, or appears once, and disappears after a user logs off and on again.


Follow these steps for a workaround which resolves this known issue:

  1. Download this zip file.
  2. Extract the content of the zip file to your computer.
    The folder contains 3 files:
    • Webpage: Locale IDs, Input Locales, and Language Collections for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003
    • chinese.txt
    • InLocale.cmd
  3. Open the webpage and locate your language.
  4. Copy its Valid Locale ID:InputLocale combinations into the text file and save.
  5. Put the txt file in C:\Windows.
  6. Now go to SoftXpand Admin Tools.
  7. Open the Host properties.
  8. Under Run programs – insert the following command:
    Program name: Rundll32
    Program Parameters: shell32,Control_RunDLLintl.cpl,,/f:"C:\WINDOWS\chinese.txt"
    As in this picture:



This will ensure that on every logon the workstation, the Chinese input will be applied.

Note: for Chinese – you must install files for East Asian languages.
