The following new strings need to be translated for MOST languages:

The following strings are visible on the "Create new skin" dialog.
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual-beta/user-interface/manage/new-skin/

• Create new skin : (This string happens in 3 places. In the Manage dialog it shows as a tooltip on the button that launches the new skin dialog. It also appears on the context menu of folders in the Manage dialog. This is also used in the title bar of the create new skin dialog.)
• New skin : Tab name - (Name of the first tab in the create new skin dialog.)
• Template : Tab name - (Name of the second tab in the create new skin dialog.)
• Template... : Button - (Text on a button in the "New skin" tab. This string should be the same as the one above this, with an ellipses at the end.)
• Add folder : Button - (Text on a button in the "New skin" tab.)

• Use default template : Drop down menu item - (First item on the menu when the "Template..." button is pressed on the "New skin" tab.)

The following strings pop up in a message box when some error happens or something is about to be deleted. The percent-encoded parts will be replaced by the name of the folder/file or error code that is in error. Please ignore these percent encoded parts and any newline characters (\n) and quotes when translating.

• Could not create folder: %1 : Message box text - (Error in creating a folder.)
• Could not create file: %1 : Message box text - (Error in creating a file.)
• The folder ""%1"" already exists. : Message box text - (Folder already exists.)
• The file ""%1"" already exists. : Message box text - (File already exists.)
• The folder ""%1"" could not be renamed.\nError code: %2 : Message box text - (Folder cannot be renamed.)
• The file ""%1"" could not be renamed.\nError code: %2 : Message box text - (File cannot be renamed.)
• Are you sure you want to delete this folder?\n%1 : Message box text - (This pops up when a folder is about to be deleted.)
• Are you sure you want to delete this file?\n%1 : Message box text - (This pops up when a file is about to be deleted.)
• Unable to delete the folder:\n%1 : Message box text - (Error in deleting folder.)
• Unable to delete the file:\n%1 : Message box text - (Error in deleting file.)
• The template ""%1"" does not exist.\nDo you want to use the default template instead? : (This pops up when the selected template in the "Template..." drop down menu is pointing to a invalid template file. It asks the user if they want to use the default template to create the file. If no, no file is created. If yes, the default template is used to create the file.)
• Template ""%1"" already exists. : Message box text - (This pops up when the name of the new template about to be saved has the same name as a template that already exists.)
• Unable to create template folder. : Message box text - (The template folder cannot be created.)
• Unable to create template file: %1 : Message box text - (The template file cannot be created.)
• Are you sure you want to delete the template ""%1""? : Message box text - (This pops up when a template file is about to be deleted.)

The following new string needs to be translated for MOST languages:

In an effort to notify users when their language is out of date, we will be adding an item to the context menu and the Manage dialog when that specific language is out of date. This message will only appear for those languages that are out of date, and not for languages that are current.

Here is what it will look like:

Please keep in mind the limited space on the context menu and Manage dialog when translating. If you have concerns with space, please post it in your language thread.

It's time again to update some "new" strings. ALL languages need to be updated (except Japanese and Russian).

All these new strings deal with the automatic updating feature.
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/installing-rainmeter/auto-update/

---

This string appears on the Manage dialog:

• Automatically install updates: Label on Settings tab - Appears on the Settings tab between "Check for updates" and "Disable dragging" on the Manage dialog.

These strings appear mainly as desktop Notifications:

• Install new version: Notification text / Context menu - Appears as the Notification "header" and also on the Context menu above "Manage".
  Spacer
• Restart Rainmeter to install version: %1: Notification text - Appears on the Notification. PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THE %1 portion of the string. Note: Since this string is used on the Notification only, length is not a big issue.

Please post the translated strings in the correct topic. Use this list to find the topic for your language.

Thank you!
