While taking a closer look when going through the MyDefrag installer, I noticed that the standard text is translated, but the various options are still in English (see picture in this post).

Would it be possible to translate these options if appropriate language files are provided by translators?

Yes, there are a few custom messages in the setup program that are always in english. I have looked in the Inno Setup Compiler documentation and I think it will be possible to provide translations for these. I have put it on the wishlist for future implementation.

p.s. Just in case somebody wants to point it out: yes, I know that there are more things that are not translated, such as the website and the debug logfile.

Debug logfine should not be translated. And website would be too much work and pages of seldom speaked languages would always be outdated.

And don't forget the help file. Wink

As for the debug log I agree with BloodSword, and for the website: I took a look around and found many pages in German where one could download MyDefrag, including a more or less detailed description. I think that should suffice for most people.

I think a proper translation of the installer text is more important than the manual, so people know what they're actually installing.
On the other hand, I know a lot of people who just click on continue without reading the pages (a lot of not needed toolbars and advertisement can be found on these PC's Roll Eyes ).
