[Solved] How to specify the language for an application

I can't figure out how to specify the language I want for one application (or all of them). I explain: most of the LiberKey application I use do speak English. Nevertheless, CDBurnerXP speaks French, LiberKey speaks Portuguese and I have an application that speaks Italian (can't remember which one). Now, I would like to establish either English or Portuguese as "standard" or default languages. Is there a way I can control this?
More especifically, can I tell LiberKey that I want (say) Firefox in Brazilian Portuguese?

Each application handle their languages. Goes to their option/preferences to modify them.
For instance, in Firefox Tools -> Options -> Content -> Languages :
http://www.ivcc.edu/uploadedImages/crc/images/FirefoxJavaOptions.jpgBy default you would have English (if you install the english package) or french (if you install the french package) and liberkey installer would install the right language depending of the language of the application which is already installed. If it's a new installation (not an update), the language of the liberkey menu would be setup for the installed application.
Some applications use also an environment (system depending) variable to automatically setup their language (for instance
gimp)
P.S : the "localized" installation is a quite new bahavior, this is maybe why you have different languages setup for some (old) applications.

This example you gave (Firefox configuration) is not what I need. This has to do with the language used to displaying pages. That is, if the same page has versions in different languages, then your preferred one will be used.
Now, I was talking about Firefox (or any other application) itself.
As I said, I have not been able to figure out how LiberKey works because I have gotten different applications
with different user interface language, even thou I have never specified any (except for the Liberkey
interface itself).

For Firefox, Thunderbird and LibreOffice (maybe OpenOffice, but I'm not sure) which have been packaged in a different way, please download the .lks (offline setup) manually again, then execute it and in one of the tabs, you can select a different language than the current one.
P.S : of course, don't forget to close the application you want to update before the update.

Thank you. This works.

I have downloaded the lks file for firefox as you mention in your message but I can't see how to execute it in a tab as you say above ??
Thanks in advance,

Here is some captures for you Jerry:
double click on the .lks (you should have the file associations activated in the menu)
