[Recuva distorts folder- and filenames with foreign characters]

- I scan the drive

- I look at the filelist:

foldernames and filenames with 8 or less characters in length containing foreign characters get distorted:

for example:

_G?ST becomes _GST~1

H?LSA becomes HLSA~1

longer filnames like:

lasses p?ronpl?ttar.txt

shows correct

- I restore selected files

- I look at the restored files and folders in windows explorer

- The same problem as above with distorted names on restored files and folders

 

Must be a very simple error to fix since the program correctly handles longer filenames with foreign characters.

[Erroneous names for files and folders with foreign characters]

When i view the file and folder list for a drive, the names are distorted when:

-the name contains foreign characters like ??????

and

-the name is 8 characters or less in length

With longer names the name is correct.

(Windows XP SP3, NTFS-partition)

 

By the way, thank you for a fantastic program.

 

Best regards
