Bug report for pause fonction in french windows

[damslezouave]

Hello ,

I'm a PinUP Popper user on a French Windows system. I'm writing to report a bug I encountered while trying to configure the pause function.

Problem:

In the emulator configuration (under the "Other" tab), the keyword START that is entered into the In Game Script field is automatically translated to DÉMARRER upon saving. This translation breaks the command, preventing it from being executed by the system.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug:

Install and launch PinUP Popper on a PC running a French version of Windows.

Go to Popper Setup -> Emulators -> Visual Pinball X -> Other.

In the In Game Script field, enter the command: START "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXPAUSE.exe"

Close and reopen the configuration interface. The In Game Script field now displays: DÉMARRER "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXPAUSE.exe"

Additional Findings:

The bug only occurs on French systems, where DÉMARRER is the translation of START.

I was able to get the command to work by directly editing the database file (PUPDatabase.db) and setting it to read-only. This confirms that the START command itself is correct, but that the software overwrites it during a write event.

Possible Solution Path:

I am currently using Process Monitor to find the exact location where this default value is stored (potentially in a .ini file or another configuration file) in order to modify it directly and permanently.

I hope this information is useful for you to correct this bug.

Thank you very much for your excellent work on PinUP Popper.
