Script 1.2.0 LabBuilder {Connect-LabVM, Disconnect-LabVM, Get-Lab, Get-LabResourceISO...}
On installing the above version of LabBuilder and trying to Install-Lab, a ParameterBindingValidationException exception is thrown:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Install-Lab -ConfigPath D:\VMs\Labs\MIM1\Configuration.xml -Verbose
VERBOSE: Repository details, Name = 'PSGallery', Location = 'https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2'; IsTrusted = 'True'; IsRegistered = 'True'.

Inspecting LabBuilder.psm1, it appears $LocalizedData is not set. It should be set under lines 11-31:
#region LocalizedData
$culture = $PSUICulture
if ([System.String]::IsNullOrEmpty($culture))
{
$culture = 'en-US'
}
else
{
if (Test-Path -Path (Join-Path -Path $script:LabBuidlerModuleRoot -ChildPath $culture))
{
$culture = 'en-US'
}
}
Import-LocalizedData `
-BindingVariable LocalizedData `
-Filename 'LabBuilder.strings.psd1' `
-BaseDirectory $script:LabBuidlerModuleRoot `
-UICulture $culture
#endregion
This should set $culture to en-US if $PSUICulture is empty, or if a path does not exist for the local culture data. This fails however as the Test-Path if statement will only set it to en-US if the path exists. I believe the result of Test-Path should be negated.
My own culture is:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $PSUICulture
en-GB
