Description
While NewView correctly handles locales when opened from something like the screensaver properties, dropping a locale fails with messages like,
"Cannot find linked file '\en_CA.IBM850'"
when dropping the en_CA locale. Likewise with ru_RU the linked file is
'.\ru_RU.IBM866'
Alex commented that the drop event handler assumes dropped item is a file.

Hi, sorry for not responding sooner, seems Netlabs was unreachable every time I tried. The attached fixes the linked file message, dropping a locale still doesn't work. Perhaps this is by design, which is fine. Yet to test your latest build
Try the attached executable build.
FWIW, since it appears that the language change logic requires a lng file to work, it's necessary to add the newview_en.lng file to the appropriate directory (e.g. \sys\lang on AOS) if you want drag and drop to work an English locale.
