I am trying to extract informations from .exe and .dll files. It works fine, but for some files VerQueryValue function gets the wrong value of language identifier, so I can't extract file description. For POWERPNT.EXE it gets 0 instead of 1033. Even property FileVersionInfo.FileDescription can't get file description. Can anyone tell me what might be the problem and what should I do?
