Hi everybody,
I have created an Installer (MSI type, developed by Visual Studio Setup Project) that has to check OS version is Windows XP 32-bit (English), but I don't know how to check Windows XP-32 bit English .vs Windows XP 64-bit English or Windows XP 32-bit French. Can anyone help me?
Thanks for helping.

You should be able to find something of use in the WMI Win32_OperatingSystem class properties

Thanks for your help. But how to use information in Win32_OperatingSystem without coding?

You could use the pre-defined properties in Windows Installer, such as VersionNT vs. VersionNT64 and SystemLanguageID.

Thanks for your help. I have solved this issue. But I have another issue when I try to install package (a setup.exe file plus a *.msi file) from a location on a network. It showed message "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package. ", but when I install package from local computer, it's fine. How can I solve this issue?

Make sure that the network share is available for the LocalSystem account, too.

OK, thank you. When I run *.msi file on a shared folder that has Full control, it is OK, but when I run that file on a shared folder that has Modify control, it has the same issue.
