Why do you want to change it?The language of the installer,Language Neutral is the default.So based on your UI language,if english, Language neutral is English.Say if an installers language is French or if there is nothing next to Language in the details, Windows Installer looks for resources in the following order:

1. Requested language
2. User's language
GetUserDefaultUILanguage
GetUserDefaultLangID
3. System's language (GetSystemDefaultLangID)
4. English

I dont know if Im following you correctly or if this helps at all.I imagine this would apply to making a program also if this is a screenshot of a program you made

I would think if language is neutral and I live in Germany running windows,that when I instal your program it will instal it in german if thats my UI language

let me run this by my buddy.He is a computer engineer for Rockwell

you want it to look something like this? Is it similar to this?

Code:
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_WELCOME
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_LICENSE "license.rtf"
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_FINISH
!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"
!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "German"
!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "French"
Section "Extract makensis"
  SetOutPath $INSTDIR
  File ..\makensis.exe
SectionEnd

Isnt there a multi lingual plugin for 3rd party developers?Or install MUI Language packs?If thats what you are looking for
