Replacing the current implementation thru a simple narrow conversion helps as workaround.
My understanding (which could be faulty) is that there is no general way to do such a wide to narrow conversion that always works.
I don't know. It works with filenames with german characters but I can't say for filenames with e.g. CJK characters. Another idea: - Get a WIN32 file handle with CreateFileW() - Get filename from handle: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/fileio/fs/obtaining_a_file_name_ from_a_file_handle.asp - use thereby the "Ansi" function to get the "ansi" filename (GetMappedFileNameA()) However I have not tested this...

I don't see how that could work unless the codepage is correct, but like you I haven't actually tested. --Beman
