I'm using German locale.

AFAIK the installer uses the ALLUSERSPROFILE setting.

ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\ProgramData

Yes, you're right, pernames.ntf resides in C:\ProgramData\IBM\Notes\Data\Shared.

Sorry, i can't provide you the requested files.

pernames.ntf should be in shared\mui\de
The correct path of pernames.ntf should be in c:\ProgramData\IBM\Notes\Data\Shared\mui\de if Windows locale is German and Notes version is also German

But this directory is missed in the machine after installation. This will cause the failure.
