Install Issue

Post by rfoley »

During install, the installer has a lot of strange font, not English? What causes this?

Generally this is a security / permissions issue with your Windows account. Not to get too deep into it, but the installer is not able to get the default "locale" for your computer, which is presumably English, and is defaulting to the first language on our list, which is Arabic.

I suspect if you right click the Rainmeter installer and "Run as administrator", it will be fine.
