Hi ander_cc,

On my system the Cascadia fonts are there. See attachment.
Windows 11 Home 25H2, so seems they 'should' be there on Pro . . . it is not a Pelles IDE issue I think...

Try going to windows settings, personalization, fonts, then see what is there.

P.S. The title on the resource 9 file also shows 13 I believe

I also try it in my laptop, it is Win11 Home 25h2, and a Win10 pc, but miss some fonts too. Maybe this issue is only related to the Windows Chinese Edition.

Hi ander_cc,

Great!

Tip:  To run multiple languages easily create a desktop shortcut for each language.
Here is an example shortcut target properties for Chinese:

C:\Program Files\PellesC_V14\Bin\poide.exe" /l 0004  <- Lower case L

This way switching languages is a matter of selecting the right shortcut.

Hi italofutra,

Hi,

I tried to install Pelles C on my employer provided Windows 11 laptop. I do not have admin rights on this laptop.

when I try to install Pelles C a smart screen  appears, but due to lack of administrator privileges, I cannot proceed.

Other software works. Is it because Pelles C binaries are not signed? If yes, why?

Just in the rare case Timo's suggestion does not work - 

If you are still having issues you might try to unblock it first and then install to a folder other than Program Files xxx.  To unblock when downloading from the internet use the properties dialog see image.  If you can't unblock on the chief's laptop then download the setup on your laptop then unblock it and put on a USB.  Then try a standard install, or install to a 'user' folder.

Not a bad suggestion at all.

Normally for OpenWatcom V2, I decompress the executable with 7-zip. This is not possible with PellesC, but the principle is the same.

I will follow your solution.

Thank you.

Just install Pelles C to another PC and pack folder and use it other PC.
Pelles C is portable and works from USB-stick.
Sometimes have to adjust settings for INCLUDE and LIB folders.

Like "Cascadia Mono", I can't see it in font name list. But can set in theme file.
Btw: When I was translating rc file, I noticed line 3409 had still read "version 13.00".
See attach files.

Hi ander_cc,

For the string tables you might consider using AI.  Here is an example input and output from Gemini

You will need to be the judge of the accuracy and perhaps fix a few things here and there but this technique should be able to get you to the finish line.

Thank you! I already translated it. https://forum.pellesc.de/index.php?topic=11778.0
