Files with multilanguage name won't sync

I'm working with files in three languages, English, Chinese and Korean.

I have to set the Unicode to read Chinese, so that the FS can sync both
English and Chinese files, however, not the Korean ones.

FS is a very good programme, fast and stable, I've used it over 1 year now,
but because the language problem, I had to switch to a paid programe
BeInSync, which is, compared to FS, a piece of Crap, slow scanning, slow
syncing, unstable, crashing often, and more. I love to use FS, even I have to
pay for it. but the language compliance would be the only problem for me.

wonder when FS can solve this problem so that I can switch back, cause I
don't want to pay BIS anymore, not even single cent

can't get it to work. How did you do it czzchen?

RE: Files with multilanguage name won't sync

you have to set your computer to run a language (you specified) for
non-unicode programme.

go to control pannel, language and region, (I'm not sure which version of
windows you are using), in Vista, go to adminstrative tab, and change the
system locale to the specific language you want, restart. if it's XP, go to
the last tab on the regional and language pop-up window (not sure what it's
called, or you may just work around to find the same tab)

let me know if this helps

cheers
