Tries made.
1) Installed the files required for East Asian Languages by going to Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options.
2) Tried converting the file from ANSI to Unicode and then trying to import.Did this in Notepad++.Even in Notepad++ when it was first opened is was gibberish.After converting to Unicode , I could see chinese characters but still installer shows it in some different characters.
3) The unicode encoded file shows chinese character in Notepad but when opened through Translator the string are not properly shown.I tried pasting from Notepad.It shows the pasted text in chinese.

Translation to Chinese
Re: Translation to Chinese
InstallAware doesn't support Unicode. The language for the OS will need to be Chinese for the translation to properly translate to Chinese.
