It is a multi language installer, language is automatically selected
to match the language of the operating system, but it can be
overridden manually.

No, installing help is not necessary. There is the online wiki help.

No, Windows installer installs English + the language of the operating system.

If someone volunteers to do that, it's OK. Single language installers
are still buildable, and even help can be included with little effort.
I don't think that we should produce official TDF builds for all
languages separately. But I can help you in producing a Khmer
installer, if you are interested.

Best regards,
