Description
The Codex desktop app has Chinese language files (zh-CN.pak) but the UI stays in English even with localeOverride="zh-CN" in config.toml. Please activate Chinese localization in the main UI. Version: Codex++ 1.2.56
OS: Windows 11

Research direction
Start by locating how the desktop app loads localeOverride from config.toml and how the main UI selects language resources. Check why the existing zh-CN.pak is not activated; done means the UI displays Chinese when localeOverride="zh-CN" is set on Windows 11.
