Can NSIS create UNICODE folders?
Hello,

I use unicode version of NSIS based on 2.35 version.
When I set out folder using SetOutPath <string> command, where string are UNICODE string (for example with Chinese codes). NSIS does not create folder with Chinese codes.
What I do wrong?

Might be a stupid question.. but did you try to save your script as Unicode text file (not UTF-8)?

Hi,

Of course, source code is UNICODE, not ASCII or UTF-8,

For example source code is:

SetOutPath "C:\Program Files\ImageSkill\CS\<Chinese hieroglyphs>\plugis"

After run installer I have the following folder

"C:\Program Files\ImageSkill\CS\plugis"

So <Chinese hieroglyphs> is absent. If I create folder using
"My computer" I create such folder successfully.

How I can create folder with Chinese hieroglyphs from NSIS?
