Description
**What are you trying to do?**
Deploy JRE via GPO Software Installation.
**Expected behaviour:**
Installer should install without further changes, much like vcredist*.msi.
**Observed behaviour:**
Installer either does not install at all or in Chinese. MSI itself identifies as chinese, needs to have "Ignore language when deploying this package" but then it's in Chinese.

**Any other comments:**
Installing a runtime should not require a MST transform or specific language selection. Please use system locale if possible.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the MSI deployment through GPO and compare its language behavior with vcredist*.msi, including the effect of “Ignore language when deploying this package.” Done means the runtime installs without an MST transform or specific language selection and uses the system locale where possible.
