is there way install or load culture in windows ?

en-in not known culture code.

you can check existing codes in list.

you can create custom culture, using cultureandregioninfobuilder, it's highly unrecommended.

// create new culture, name desire cultureandregioninfobuilder cib = new cultureandregioninfobuilder("en-in", cultureandregionmodifiers.none);  // load defaults en-us cultureinfo ci = new cultureinfo("en-us"); cib.loaddatafromcultureinfo(ci);  // populate new cultureandregioninfobuilder object region information. regioninfo ri = new regioninfo("us"); cib.loaddatafromregioninfo(ri);  // can make changes, or finish. // changes can currency, regionname, etc.  // finish cib.register(); 

this article explains how it.

or can set custom culture :

dim customculture globalization.cultureinfo = new globalization.cultureinfo("en-us") customculture.datetimeformat.shortdatepattern = "dd-mmm-yyyy" customculture.datetimeformat.longdatepattern = "dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss"  customculture.datetimeformat.shorttimepattern = "hh:mm:ss" customculture.datetimeformat.longtimepattern = "hh:mm:ss" system.threading.thread.currentthread.currentculture = customculture system.threading.thread.currentthread.currentuiculture = customculture
