      The strings it complains about are (for english line289 in IDD_IMPORT_WELCOME):

        LTEXT "This wizard helps you import certificates, certificate revocation lists, and certificate trust lists from a file to a certificate store.\n\n\
      A certificate can be used to identify you or the computer with which you are communicating. It can also be used for authentication, and to sign messages. Certificate stores are collections of certificates, certificate revocation lists, and certificate trust lists.\n\n\
      To continue, click Next.",
          -1, 115,40,195,120
      

      and line 385 in IDD_EXPORT_WELCOME:

        LTEXT "This wizard helps you export certificates, certificate revocation lists, and certificate trust lists from a certificate store to a file.\n\n\
      A certificate can be used to identify you or the computer with which you are communicating. It can also be used for authentication, and to sign messages. Certificate stores are collections of certificates, certificate revocation lists, and certificate trust lists.\n\n\
      To continue, click Next.",
          -1, 115,40,195,120
      

      A solution could be:
      to shorten the strings, or
      cut these controls into several smaller ones, or
      store the long string in a separate resource string, and load it and set it as the static control text at runtime using LoadStringW(). (feels like overkill to me)
