📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe pull request adds English and Chinese runtime localization for the WPF interface, configuration-driven content, workflow messages, search, background runspaces, and language selection. It also standardizes UTF-8 handling and adds localization validation tests. ChangesRuntime localization
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Language switching can currently lose multiline formatting, leave ISO workflow text stale or untranslated, and obscure failures while restoring preferences; the language selector also remains outside the required localization contract. These bounded correctness issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@functions/private/Initialize-InstallCategoryAppList.ps1`:
- Line 46: Keep the raw category identifier separate from the localized display
text in Initialize-InstallCategoryAppList: store $Category in a non-display
property on the toggle button, and update the click handler’s removal logic to
use that property instead of $categoryToggle.Content. Preserve the localized
Content value for presentation.
In `@functions/private/Set-WinUtilLanguage.ps1`:
- Around line 37-43: In the language-switching branch, validate the populated
translation table before assigning it to $sync.TextTable; when no translation
entries were loaded, throw an error so the existing catch and rollback path
handles the failed switch instead of accepting an empty table. Update the logic
around the $table construction and $sync.TextTable assignment while preserving
successful switches with non-empty translations.
- Around line 49-72: Update Set-WinUtilLanguage so the language preference is
persisted only after Initialize-WinUtilTabContent and Invoke-WinUtilUILanguage
complete successfully. In the catch path, restore the previous language and text
tables, re-render the current tab with Initialize-WinUtilTabContent, reapply
static UI text, and persist the restored preference so cleared grids and
InitializedTabs are recovered without leaving the session or preferences in a
mixed state.
In `@functions/public/Invoke-WPFFixesUpdate.ps1`:
- Around line 205-206: Add i18n entries in the localization configuration for
the exact source strings used by Get-WinUtilText in Invoke-WPFFixesUpdate:
“Reset Windows Update ” and “Stock settings loaded.`n Please reboot your
computer”. Alternatively, update both calls to use existing localization keys
while preserving the displayed messages.
In `@functions/public/Invoke-WPFUIElements.ps1`:
- Line 325: Update the synthetic unknown-state item handling around
$unknownStateItem to assign a stable Tag marker, then use that marker in the
searches and restoration logic near the retry handling instead of comparing
localized Content to "Custom / Unknown - select a state".
In `@pester/search-filter.Tests.ps1`:
- Around line 556-657: Add focused Pester tests for Find-AppsByNameOrDescription
that configure $sync.TextTable with translated application Content and
Description values, then verify searches using translated terms show matching
app items and hide non-matches. Cover both translated Content and Description
independently, using the existing application test helpers and setup patterns
without changing the Tweaks tests.
In `@scripts/main.ps1`:

When the user switches languages at runtime, this traversal leaves TextBox.Text unchanged, including WPFWin11ISOPath and WPFWin11ISOStatusLog. After switching English to Chinese and browsing for an ISO, Write-WinUtilISOLog compares the remaining English ready message with the newly localized Chinese message, fails to replace it, and appends the log beneath the stale English placeholder; switching back has the inverse problem. Explicitly update these localized placeholder fields as part of every switch, not only the initial Loaded event.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When switching from Chinese to English, collapsing translations into this value-to-key table cannot restore distinct controls that share a translation. The committed pack maps both Documentation and Document to 文档, so the settings menu and category chip are both restored to whichever English key is encountered first, leaving at least one mislabeled; hashtable enumeration also does not make that choice semantically reliable. Restore from each control's original English key instead of reversing a non-injective translation table.

When a registry combobox starts in an unsupported state under Chinese, this localizes the sentinel item, but the selection handler later searches for the English literal Custom / Unknown - select a state at lines 354 and 363. A successful change therefore leaves the disabled sentinel in the dropdown, and a failed change cannot reselect the prior sentinel and instead clears the selection. Store a stable marker separately or perform the later lookup using the same localized value.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
A language switch replaces the generated controls but retains the old handler-registration state. In particular, $sync.Buttons still contains every generated button name, so Invoke-WPFUIElements skips Add_Click for the replacement buttons; the replacement Winget/Chocolatey radio buttons likewise do not receive the one-time handlers attached in main.ps1. Consequently, after switching languages, Install actions and other config-driven buttons stop responding, and changing the displayed package manager no longer updates $sync.preferences.packagemanager. Remove rebuilt names from the registration cache or bind handlers to every newly created control.

When the current tab is Tweaks or AppX and the search box contains a query, this rebuild creates every entry as visible but never calls Find-TweaksByNameOrDescription with the unchanged query. The search box therefore continues showing an active filter while nonmatching entries reappear until the user edits the query or changes tabs; Install avoids this because its batch renderer explicitly reapplies the current filter. Reapply the active Tweaks/AppX search after initializing the replacement tab.

This introduces user-facing non-English text directly in XAML and repeats the same Chinese string as both the key and value in i18n.json. That violates the repository's localization invariant and prevents the English UI from representing the option from an English source string. Use an English header such as Simplified Chinese and map that key to 简体中文 in the language pack.

The new popup keeps WPF's default stay-open behavior, but the form click, deactivation, Theme, Settings, and Font Scaling handlers only close the three pre-existing popups. After opening Language, clicking elsewhere, deactivating the window, or opening another toolbar popup can therefore leave Language open and overlapping the UI until the user clicks its button or selects an item. Add Language to the shared close lists or configure equivalent dismissal behavior.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
…switch Language switches reset the button registration cache so rebuilt config buttons receive their click handlers again, re-attach the package-manager radio handlers, re-apply an active search, and re-sync ISO placeholder lines. The preference is persisted only after the switch succeeds; a failure restores the previous language, re-renders the current tab, and persists the restored preference. Language validation now derives from config/i18n.json instead of a hard-coded ValidateSet, and an empty translation table is rejected as a failed switch.
The forward pass records each translated control's original text in its Uid (unused by this project's XAML); the reverse pass restores from that record before falling back to the reverse table. Controls that share one translation (Documentation and Document both map to 文档) now come back to their own English key instead of the first key the reverse table saw. Inline-segment and language-text helpers move to their matching private function files.
Category toggles carry the raw category in Tag so the click handler removes the matching AppCategoryAutoExpanded entry even when the label is localized; the app-search filter keys auto-expansion by the same raw category from the WrapPanel Tag. The registry combo's unknown-state sentinel is found and restored by a stable Tag marker instead of its localized Content.
…h source key The language popup now hides alongside Settings/Theme/FontScaling on form click, window deactivation, and the other popup toggles. The Chinese language menu item uses the English source string 'Simplified Chinese' with its translation in config/i18n.json instead of hard-coded text.
…and localized app search The runtime traversal describe resets the translation table per test instead of relying on describe order, and the reverse-restore describe covers two controls that share one translation. Find-AppsByNameOrDescription gains cases that search translated Content and Description with an active language table.

log the rollback failure if that write also throws.
- Around line 62-69: Update the ISO placeholder handling around $isoPath and

recognized candidates when present, so stale TextBox text is preserved and
localized correctly across language changes. Remove duplicate entries for both

The full-text path records Uid without segment boundaries, so the reverse pass restores English on one line.
Line 65 joins the segments with no separator to build the lookup key. Line 73 stores that same joined value in Uid. Line 38 later assigns $node.Text = $node.Uid, so every original LineBreak position is lost. For multi-line keys such as the USB warning, the restored English text runs together.
The per-segment path already records Uid with "n"` at line 89. Use the same separator here, and keep the joined value only as the lookup key.

PowerShell ConvertFrom-Json duplicate property names last value wins Json.NET DuplicatePropertyNameHandling
💡 Result:
The PowerShell cmdlet ConvertFrom-Json natively handles duplicate JSON property names by defaulting to a last-value-wins behavior [1][2]. Because the underlying object types in PowerShell (PSObject and Hashtable) do not support duplicate keys, ConvertFrom-Json processes the JSON string and keeps only the final value encountered for any duplicated key [1][3]. In the context of Json.NET (the library that historically powered this behavior in PowerShell), the equivalent setting is DuplicatePropertyNameHandling.Replace [4][5]. The DuplicatePropertyNameHandling enumeration in Json.NET provides three options for handling duplicates when loading JSON [4]: Replace (Default): Uses the value of the last property found in the JSON [4]. Ignore: Keeps the value of the first property found [4]. Error: Throws a JsonReaderException when a duplicate is encountered [4]. While Json.NET supports these modes through settings like JsonLoadSettings, the ConvertFrom-Json cmdlet does not expose a parameter to configure this behavior [1][2]. Consequently, users are constrained to the default last-value-wins behavior [6].

The rollback write can throw and hide the original failure.
Line 113 and line 127 write the same file. If the original failure came from that write (locked file, read-only directory), line 127 throws again. That exception leaves the catch block unhandled, so line 128 never logs the root cause and the error reaches the caller.
Wrap the rollback write and log the failure.

After a user switches to Simplified Chinese and selects English, this validation always rejects en because config/i18n.json only has zh-CN as a top-level language pack. Execution therefore enters the catch block before reaching the English branch at line 79, restores Chinese, and leaves the user unable to switch back without restarting after removing or editing the saved preference. Treat en as the built-in fallback before validating external language packs.

When the zh-CN pack is parsed, this later duplicate property replaces the Chinese No ISO selected... mapping at line 130 with English; the duplicate Ready. Please select a Windows 11 ISO to begin. at line 364 similarly replaces its Chinese mapping from line 131. Consequently the new placeholder synchronization can only render those two ISO fields in English. Fresh evidence relative to the earlier placeholder comment is that these duplicate entries still defeat the now-added synchronization logic; keep a single Chinese value for each key.

In Chinese mode this lookup translates application display names such as ChatGPT Desktop, even though the Configuration Contract added by this commit explicitly states that applications.json display names are not translated. This makes the implementation and its new localization test enforce the opposite of the documented contract; leave $app.content unchanged here while continuing to localize descriptions and categories.

This adds a user-facing language selector and introduces a new runtime/configuration architecture, but the commit changes no page under docs/src/content/docs/guides/ and does not update the hand-written architecture reference. Add a guide explaining selection and persistence plus architecture documentation for i18n.json, lookup/fallback behavior, and tab rebuilding as required for these changes.

When the Install tab is rebuilt during a language switch, Initialize-WinUtilTabContent queues application entries at dispatcher Background priority and this traversal runs immediately before those entries exist. The subsequently created New-WinUtilFossBadge controls therefore retain their hard-coded English Free and Open Source Software tooltip even though the Chinese mapping exists. Localize such deferred controls when they are constructed, or run localization after each render batch.

If writing preferences.json at line 113 fails because the directory is read-only, the disk is full, or the file is locked, control enters this catch block and immediately repeats the same unprotected Set-Content. That second failure escapes the handler, skips Write-WinUtilLog, and can leave the user-facing switch reporting an unhandled error despite the attempted UI rollback. Protect or omit the rollback write when persistence itself was the failure.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When the user collapses one or all Install categories and then changes language while remaining on that tab, resetting the initialization map and rebuilding the tab recreates every category with Visibility = Visible and a - prefix. Only filter-driven expansions are tracked in AppCategoryAutoExpanded; manual collapsed state exists solely on the discarded controls, so the language switch unexpectedly expands everything. Capture the raw collapsed category keys in $sync before rebuilding and restore them on the replacement controls.
