Yes, obviously it is an old problem. But it is a solvable problem (@admin are you reading this?). How easy or difficult depends on what development platform they (Hasleo) are using for the GUI.
Judging by the logs the program creates, they are using C++ of some kind.
If it is .Net/Visual C++, then it is relatively easy. Upon application start, current UICulture and Culture objects are easily accessible. First one tells what the GUI is. No need for language selection menu.
The second gives the country rules for formatting, among other things. It defines Date, Time, number and Calendar formatting, string comparing rules, etc., as well as providing support for implementation of the formatting.
If it is some third party library or bare feet Win32, it is a bit more messy but still doable through Win32 APIs
This way everybody gets the language and date and time one wants, provided one has selected in Windows Settings>Time & Language>Language & Region according to one's wishes
@admin
after you pass this to your development team, will you please bring back their comment to the forum?
