Common language runtime (CLR) issueWhen you are using some non-English operating systems, the PerformanceCounterCategory.GetCategories method cannot return a list of performance counter categories. Additionally, a .NET Framework application returns no values when you run code that resembles the following enumerate performance counter categories:

PerformanceCounterCategory[] categories;categories = PerformanceCounterCategory.GetCategories();Console.WriteLine(categories.Length + " categories are registered on this computer");

<configuration>    <appSettings>        <add key="LocalizedPerfCounter" value="true" />    </appSettings></configuration>
