Language for Non-Unicode Programs

[madurham]

Hi,

 

I've been having an issue with printers defaulting to Letter and found that the local 'language for non-unicode programs' was set to US, changing it to UK fixes the issue. Problem is I need to now do this to hundreds of clients for all users and there doesn't seem to be a way of setting it in group policy.

 

Does anyone know of the easiest way to set this across the domain?

As a Group Policy Preference by the looks of it.

 

More specifically, I had a bit of a search and it looks like you can change a registry entry which will do it but you'd either push it out via a logon script, or maybe a bit easier through a GPP Registry change.

Thanks. It worked great.
