Can some one help me to find out how to localize MBAM in some other language( e.g.-> Japanese). I had set the menus language to a different language other than English, but it has not started the encryption process. But when the Menu was again set to the English language, encryption starts. So, i want to know can MBAM be localized, and if yes How it can be. During the installation steps, i had not received the option to change the installation language or use the MBAM in some language other than English.Gaurav Ranjan

Hi, Seems it is by design.

Ok, thanks for the reply. Can you please suggest me how I will localize MBAM in Japanese. Whats are the steps needed for achieving the target. Do the installer of the MBAM is language dependent. As far as I am concerned, MBAM setup creates two policy templates. BitLockerManagement.admx and BitLockerUserManagement.admx. Additionally, MBAM Setup copies matching language files to the appropriate language subfolder in the PolicyDefinitions folder. in my case I am getting only the en-us folder. so do we have to use the installer for MBAM based on the language. I have seen the MDOP packges to download based on the language. Gaurav Ranjan

BitLocker works on the installer language, so you may install Japanese Windows OS rather than Japanese language package for a test. For Windows is designed in English, any other language is only translation, the kernal is still English.
