Cyrillic chatacters

Post by iakov »

Hello!
I've got latest version and loving it except that russian characters in file and folder names do not display properly but instead displayed as question marks.
I don't have that problem with regular Window Explorer so the system encoding seems to be set correctly.
Main font is Tahoma and I tried to change script from Western to Cyrillic, but there was no change.
I'd love to continue using this great program, but this really limits it's functionality.
I've searched similar topics, but all I found refer to Pro version.
Anyone knows what needs to be done?

the sure fire solution would be to install the pro version that comes in unicode and will work with your Cyrillic code page. There could be a way to convince the lite version to show these characters properly too, see your control panel for something like "default language or code page for ansi programs", but i am not sure how or if it works

chinese caracters

Post by bertrouf6111 »

I have exactly the same problem with Chinese characters. When the name of files is written in Chinese, I can only see question marks. As they are visible in the windows' explorer, I guess it's not a problem of language settings - and my different tests confirm it's not.

I'd really like a Unicode extension for the lite version.  :cry:
