NSIS Multi Language License File support does not work

[zanzara]

• Electron-Builder Version: 23.6.0

• Node Version: 16.16.0

• Electron Version: 21.1.0
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current

• Target: Windows10 64bit

I have multiple license files as license_en.html and license_de.html i.e.
but it doesn't matter in which folder I put them, the installer setup.exe will never show them.

If i put the license prop directly to one license file location as ie.
license: license_en.html
it works.

So I assume, that this feature does not work as described in the electron-builder docs under
https://www.electron.build/configuration/nsis

I do understand that the issue is closed more than a year ago, but still.

According to app-builder-lib package source code, the license files could be placed in root on build resources (https://www.electron.build/nsis#license), meaning if you put the license files (license_de.txt, license_en.txt etc) to the root and run electron-builder to make nsis installer, the files should be handled accordingly.

To check it, after the installer script review the builder-debug.yml file. There should be something like:

!macro licensePage
  LicenseLangString MUILicense 1033 "path\build\license_en.txt"
  LicenseLangString MUILicense 1031 "path\build\license_de.txt"
  !insertmacro MUI_PAGE_LICENSE "$(MUILicense)"
!macroend
