Inno Setup installer has incorrect text encoding

My installer (Inno Setup) has poor Russian text encoding for some Windows installations. All machines have Windows XP SP3 (English version), but for some it works, some of them do not.

Are there any settings in Windows to fix this?
Thanks

I assume that you are using a version of Inno Setup other than Unicode. Machines in which the installer has the wrong encoding probably do not have the Russian set as an obsolete (non-Unicode) encoding.

In the Windows XP Control Panel, select the Regional and Language Options check box. On the Advanced tab, check the box next to "Language for non-Unicode programs." It may be a different language than the Windows interface language. If I am right, working machines have this set in Russian, and non-working machines have this set in English (or other).



In any case, always use the Unicode version of Inno Setup , and you will not have such problems.

No one should develop applications other than Unicode in the 21st century!
