Review the applicable Embedded Core modules and any examples for the UserLocale setting in Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8).

This setting contains the ISO language-region identifier that specifies the locale of the end user, and is used to format dates, times, currency, and numbers in a Standard 8 image.

This value is not case-sensitive. If this setting is empty, the default value is en-US. However, if you leave this setting empty in an unattended installation, the Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8) Setup user interface will display.

End users can change this value on a running Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8) image by using Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.
