Customer Impact

  • Customer reported
  • Found internally

Links in the installer have English text instead of localized text. See #120109 for screenshots. Found by CTI.

Regression

  • Yes
  • No

Installers moved to WiX 5 in RC2 and we intentionally took a regression to localization because string weren't localized in time for the release. Now for GA we have all the strings.

Testing

I validated this locally by running the installer using /lang 3082 and verifying that the link is localized.

Risk

Low. Localization was already missing.

Fixes #120109
