Details
Installing NX silently always provides NX Windows start menus in English, but the wish is to have them in French.
There is no indication for this in the installation documentation.
Using the "LANGUAGE" keyword does not solve this issue, NX menus are set in the local language, but not start menus.
The interactive installation, on the other hand, allows the selection of a local language for Windows start menus.
Solution
The local language for NX Windows start menus can be set by using the "TRANSFORMS" keyword, for example "TRANSFORMS=fr-fr.mst".
All the local language MST files are located in the "nx" folder of the installation package.
The example below shows how to use it in the NX silent installation command line :
D:\Siemens\software_install\SiemensNX-1926_wntx64\nx\Setup.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=\"FEAT_NXPLATFORM,FEAT_TRANSLATORS,FEAT_DRAFTING\" LANGUAGE=french INSTALLDIR=\"D:\Siemens\NX 1926\" LICENSESERVER=28000@myserver TRANSFORMS=fr-fr.mst"
