NT Locale Emulator Advance 0.8

NT Locale Emulator Advance (NTLEA) is a small Windows utility that helps run legacy or region‑locked, non‑Unicode applications under a different locale without changing your system-wide settings. By emulating a target code page and regional environment for selected processes, it ensures text, filenames, and input are interpreted correctly—particularly useful for software designed for East Asian markets.

Key features:

• Per-application locale emulation: run specific programs under a chosen code page and locale while leaving the global system locale unchanged.
• Win32 API hooking: adjusts text encoding, resource loading, and related calls so non‑Unicode apps display and handle characters properly.
• Profile-based launching: save settings (code page, fonts, parameters) and launch apps with one click or via command line.
• Console and font tweaks: optional fixes for console encoding and font substitution to improve readability.
• Lightweight footprint: runs only for targeted processes and requires no permanent system modifications.

Typical use cases:

• Playing games or using utilities built for a specific regional market (for example, Japanese, Chinese, or Korean) on an English Windows installation.
• Testing how an application behaves under different legacy code pages.
• Opening documents or filenames encoded in a non-default ANSI code page.

Notes:

• Works on Windows NT-based systems (e.g., modern Windows desktop editions).
• For best results, install the appropriate fonts and input methods for the target language.
• Some applications may still require additional regional settings or administrative permissions depending on how they were designed.
