Localizing Windows login agent's user interface language

The Windows login agent can be customized to display the ADSelfService Plus portal in languages other than English.The information derived from the ADSelfService Plus server can be displayed in any of the 21 supported languages byfollowing the steps in this guide.

Other information that is derived from the login agent in the specific machine including the offline MFA feature andcustom password policies can be displayed in 7 languages - Simplified Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Turkish,Spanish, and Polish. By default, the information displayed by the login agent follows the welcome screen displaylanguage settings (Start > Settings > Time & Language > Administrative language settings > Welcome screenand new user accounts > Copy settings > Welcome screen display language). If the admin wishes tooverride this, they will have to alter the Windows registry in the required user machines as when machine isoffline, it won't be able to fetch custom language details from the product server.

Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\ZOHO Corp\ADSelfService Plus Client Software in 64-bit machines or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ZOHO Corp\ADSelfService Plus Client Software in 32-bit machines.
