There is also this can of worms regarding translations.
For example C:\Users will be shown as C:\Benutzer on a German system but still be C:\Users on the FS.
"C:\Program Files (x86)" will show up as "C:\Programme (x86)" BUT "C:\Program Files" will stay the same (non translated).
(I forgot how this topic is called though and on what layer it takes places.)
Windows XP already could do it, but didn't for the most part. I remember, like ~18 years ago, I was a sysadmin. One user out of 50 got his "My Doc/Pictures/etc." in English but for me on the File-Server it was all in German. Very confusing.
It's the shell (i.e. Explorer) showing a localized name. Although I think in Windows XP it was still baked into the language you installed Windows with and stuck with that.
