          If you are fluent a language other than English, I would greatly appreciate it you would spend some time translating the ExperienceUI into your native language.  You can edit the strings in <code>&lt;NSIS&gt;\Contrib\ExperienceUI\Language Files\English.nsh</code>, and save them in a new file.  If you translate the ExperienceUI, I (and the many people that speak your native language) would sincerely appreciate it if you e-mail it to me.  <br>
