1. Store your localized text in a file that can be included by the C++ compiler as well

2. Use sizeof(printf()) and a bit of macro magic

3. Get the compiler to check format specifiers in all strings, including localizations

4. Profit!

In all seriousness, for the 1000th time: who at MSFT do I need to convince that it is such an absurdly stupid idea to update & reboot my PC without my consent while it's sleeping?

"Why is it so hot in the office? Why is the PC turned on? WHY ARE MY INSTANCES OF VS CLOSED?!?"

Found a bug in the VS2022 debugger today, where RIP won't be adjusted correctly internally, yet watching rip in the Watch Window and looking at the yellow area show the correct location.

That was a fun one to track down...

Another potential customer, another one of these:

C: "Starting the Live++ Broker crashes almost instantly."

S: "Do you have Crowdstrike installed?"

C: "Yes."

I'm getting more and more annoyed with so-called "Enterprise software" each day.
