About

The Microsoft AppLocale utility, originating from the United States, is a solution for running non-Unicode applications on Windows XP. It detects the language of legacy applications and simulates a corresponding system. Key features include international support and handling of UTF-8 and non-Latin characters. It addresses code-page and system-locale issues for legacy applications. The software is free but proprietary. User reviews highlight its usefulness in displaying foreign language character sets and working with non-Latin filenames, though its functionality varies across applications. It is considered a life-saver for legacy applications that don't support Unicode.
