Summary
On the Windows Store Codex App, Chinese chat/model interaction works normally, but the desktop UI localization is incomplete. The interface shows mixed Simplified Chinese and English, especially in menu/settings/sidebar areas.
Environment
- OS: Windows
- Store package:
OpenAI.Codex_26.422.3464.0_x64__2p2nqsd0c76g0 - App context version observed:
26.422.30944 - Windows culture/region:
zh-CN - Windows UI culture observed:
en-US
Troubleshooting already tried
- Re-registered the Microsoft Store app package successfully.
- Confirmed package status is
Ok. - Confirmed
zh-CNresources exist in the installed package. - Launched the Store app executable with
--lang=zh-CN; renderer/network processes received the flag, but the UI remained mixed Chinese/English.
Expected behavior
When Simplified Chinese is selected or detected, the desktop UI should be consistently localized into Simplified Chinese.
Actual behavior
The UI remains partially Chinese and partially English.
