Can not open files with filenames containing latvian symbols

Post by maxdeepfield »

When file name contains symbols like "ā š ķ ņ ī" then xnview says
---------------------------
Warning
Error opening file <C:\Users\MaxDeepfield\Desktop\a s k n i.png>
---------------------------
note that in xnview error message dialog symbols are "a s k n i" and not "ā š ķ ņ ī"
xnview 2.43 running on windows 10
