All Studio versions: Filenames with scandinavian characters get corrupted inside the project packages created by Studio.

Steps to reproduce: create a Studio project for trans files containing [äöå] in their names. When Studio creates a project package for the project, the internal zipping algorithm corrupts these characters. At least in some scenarios this causes problems when the packages are opened/translated/returned and the files need to be renamed manually. It seems that the internal zipping function used by Studio does not handle these extended characters correctly.

Studio project source language folder:

  • Sorry, if what I write sounds rude.
    This is not a problem with Studio. If it is a problem, then it is a Windows problem.
    But TBH the problem are dumb users, who do not realize using diacritics in file names will cause problems in operating systems running other language than the language of this particular user. It has always be the best option NOT to use any diacritics in file names.
