Set the locale settings at the system level for Windows and MAC OS to be used by the Creative Cloud Packager Match OS option
If you use Creative Cloud Packager to create a package and choose the Match OS option, the products are installed in the language based on the locale settings on the host system.
When the installer is run, it checks for the locale on the host system. It must be noted that the locale check is done at the system level. This implies that if, on a host system, the locale for which the products need to be installed is set for a user (or set of users), the products will not be installed in that language but will be installed in the locale that is set at the system level.
