Locale Emulator doesn't work with 64Bit things, if you want to use a emulator for locale you'll need one of the other ones linked (starting here) above.
Or... Ta-daaa!

Bet you didn't expect you would be shown something new and possibly helpful! :)

Truth be told, I just noticed this a very little while ago, too.

This technique used to work wonders on the old Windows. Thankfully a lot of Japanese game developers are using alternative software, so you rarely need to do this anymore. I guess it depends on what software they are using.

Honestly, I just leave my computer on Japanese Locale. As far as I can tell, it doesn't seem to break anything.

Sorry, but I tried to install a game called Saiminjutsu 3, and I downloaded the local emulator and a crack to play it, but when I use it, I get a warning that I don't understand since I'm new to this, and the mistake that the game gives me when I start it after I install it is

and to solve it, I use this crack

but when using it, it gives me this warning, and I don't know how to solve it so that I can play the game. A patch came, and I also used it, but it doesn't work either. Can someone tell me if I'm missing something for it to work, or what I have to do?

In addition to setting the system locale, you may need to re-install the game entirely, if you originally installed the game under default system locale.

I did, I downloaded the game while already had Jap locale. I redownloaded few times from different sites thinking that it may fix an issue, but it didnt.

Okay, but how are you extracting the files? Make sure it's not in another language or unicode.

As any japRPG usually. I just open 7zip and press extract here. I dont change language or unicode and other JP games I extracted worked fine. But I have a problem with this game
