Description

The locale in which the user's webtop and Help appear. Not all locales may be available: if the locale is missing, the user sees an error page.

Note This attribute is only used with the classic webtop. The browser-based webtop ignores it.

Choose Automatic to use the client device's current locale, if that can be detected.

A locale has two parts, language and territory, separated by a hyphen -.
