How it works with programs other than Unicode character encoding or the use of the language is the default in Windows?
Example: If run a program in different language say Chinese, which do not use Unicode, but GB2312 (Simplified Chinese). It will then be included in XP, which assumes that Windows 1252 is used. Windows 7 do the encoding used?

Can add that Microsoft has a solution, in the form of program AppLocale. The question is whether this function better, preferably automatic, contained in Windows 7.
