No support for unicode! = bad software!

IDM and IDA does not recognize Chinese and Russian names

Disappointed in this program. Already a very, very long time ago I asked for support but still nothing was done - a big disappointment...

System Windows 7 POLISH

example:

All names shown as unicode -> "???? - ???(Remix).mp3" ..... ?????.zip
The system does not save the SYMBOL "?" so removes the ALLL name!

Could you provide a link, please?

No answer?

Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Translit - DM.

This is not about language program!!!!!!!!
Only the names of the files you download! !!!!
It does not support any, any Unicode.

Example:
??????.RAR(saves the file without a name)
Unicode <=convert => "???" BAD!


should be:
天狗が見ている.RAR

You need to hire qualified developers have created a program to support Unicode.

The software should have the "Dialogue" and it can solve the problem with Unicode?

100% PROOF. Not work UNICODE. No help?

In order to support saving files with Unicode names (not displaying them properly, this is entirely different thing which requires some visual component hacking or either usage of third-party components like TNT Unicode), Download Master must use widechar/widestring variables as well as Unicode version of TStringList for storing names, as well as Unicode counterparts of Open/Save dialogs.

It is doable even with Delphi 7, but in case of Download Master may require major rewrite of logic (and will terminate support for Windows 9x, because it lacks Unicode support).

1. How is it related to the logic?
2. Why 9x? I think 95 only.

Only example:

JDownloader 2 - supports all(!) unicode and "special symbol"

IDA and Download Master - does not support unicode and "special symbol"!

There was a solution;
