Inno setup - automatically install language pack #205666

Testing #205564

I might misunderstand the scope of the work here but I would have expected that if I go through the setup using a particular language, when the product launches it would make the language of the setup. I think that it would be nice to automatically install the language pack that matches the setup language.

This is not very related to the scope of this work, however, this is still a valid feature request and I wondered the same thing after running the setup scripts in the different languages. Maybe @joaomoreno or @TylerLeonhardt can clarify why we aren't doing so yet.

Might be a cool thing to explicitly call out in the setup. Streamline things.

Today, after they install VS Code and they open it for the first time, you do get a notification that says "do you wanna get the language pack" in the language that their OS is set to (if we have a language pack for that language of course)

So we do kinda have a solution for this, but it's not as nice as a checkbox in the setup.

I don't have history to understand why we didn't do this before. Maybe the solution was good enough, but I think we should consider it if it's relatively straightforward.
