This bug had been previously reported at Bug 38256 and 32335. The latest said the new LO 3.5 will use another installation package (and hopefully have it fixed). However, after trying LO3.5, the same problem still occur. Even worst, the new installation package cannot be decompress first and have the setup modified, therefore, there is no way to install the LO3.5 in the computer now. I suggest the ultimate way to fix it for good is to add setup language selection choice in the setup rather then simply trust whatever the installation "think" what it should be.
Bug 32335 was a different issue (related to NSIS, which has gone). Bug 38256 was also a different issue, there the MSI installer used the right language (zh-TW). Setup language selection is asked by many users, but it will not be ready any time soon. For 3.5.x releases I need to find out why Windows thinks that Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong) should fall back to Simplified Chinese (PRC). You can start Traditional Chinese installer manually with the following command: msiexec /i LibO_3.5.0_Win_x86_install_multi.msi TRANSFORMS=:1028
Thank you for the quick work around. But if I would like to install it with English, what switches should be use?

For en-US there is no transform. Alternatively you can set your regional settings to USA when you install LibreOffice.

I added Fix submitter as assignee because this will ease queries and bug tracking.
