SUMMARY
You may experience the following symptoms when you use roaming profiles on computers that are running Microsoft Windows 2000 MultiLanguage Version:
 * Text in certain windows and dialog boxes may appear as blocks or appear in a different language.
 * Icons and buttons in certain windows and dialog boxes appear incorrectly.

For example, in Control Panel, you may find that text appears in a different language, and icons are not displayed as you expect.



CAUSE
This issue may occur if you use a roaming profile with different Multilanguage Version language installations on different computers.

For example, this issue may occur if you log on to a computer with Korean language support activated, log off, and then log on to a computer with Japanese language support activated. Windows 2000 Multilanguage Version does not support the use of roaming profiles across different language installations.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, install support for the appropriate language on the computer.
