    Description

      Example:
      start ROS, run CMD, "copy xyz" (or any other file that doesn't exist)
      -> ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND - The system cannot find the file specified.

      (from \obj-i386\dll\win32\kernel32\errcodes.rc)

      and that's because the error is retrieved in \base\shell\cmd\copy.c using GetLastError(). This error will always be displayed in english, overriding the chosen language.

      If I execute ROS CMD.exe in Windows trying the above I get a localized/translated error message. That makes me believe, that Windows passes translated GetLastError messages.
      Is that planned as well for ROS?
