Description
The request
I would like to request a feature that allows defining a specific locale for installed packages during the update process.
Currently, WAU runs winget upgrade without specific locale flags. It would be very useful to have a configuration file (e.g., apps_locales.txt or similar to the existing lists) where users can map a Package ID to a specific locale code.
For example:
Mozilla.Firefox=pl-PL
Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.Community=en-US
WAU would then append --locale "pl-PL" when constructing the upgrade command for that specific package.
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Yes. When WAU updates applications automatically, it tends to revert the application language to English or the other, ignoring the user's previous installation choices or Windows lang.
Specific examples from my experience:
1. Firefox: I have the Polish version installed. After WAU updates it, it changes to the English version.
2. Visual Studio: I use the English version. After the update, it switches to German.Additional information
