@bovirus, I've given this a lot of thought. The issue that you ran into is unique for the case where an existing version that didn't have the desired language was upgraded to a version that now has the desired language. Once the desired language is selected, the settings file is updated, and that language will be used going forward until it is changed again. This should only happen once. Please let me know if it reverts in a subsequent installation.

I could change the default of the UseOSLanguage setting to true and that would cause the app to use the current culture language IF that language has been included in the app. However, this would only be useful for new installations, not updates. See the language selection logic in App.xaml.cs. starting at line 37.

The UseOSLanguage setting is the checkbox (in green).

I hope this explains what is happening.

I beleieve that enable automatic OS language/application language match (if availble) is a good option.

Of course is suful for each new installation.
