Xyplorer 25.50 not accepting ROU (Romanian Programmers) input (at folder name creation) ..

Post by danielpetre »

Hello, so it seems (latest 25.50) Xyplorer does not accept some of my language diacritics?

I tried to type ăăăâââșșșțțțîîî but it won't accept two of them..
Using ROU (Romanian Programmers) lang under Windows 11.

What's going on? Thanks !

P.S. I'm on lifetime license if that matters.

That's weird! AFAIK nothing has changed regarding character input. Does the same thing happen when typing in the address bar?

Which two?

Hi, in the address bar same behaviour: șșșșș (right alt + s for romanian programmers lang) and țțțțț (ralt + t) do not appear.

Okay. This is tricky, there won't be a fast solution. Needs research. It's on my list.

BTW, the issue is not specific to XY: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/736 ... display-as

And it might have historical causes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanian_keyboard_layout

I loaded a Romanian keyboard and tried this in File Explorer but these key combos don't produce anything there. :? I assume "right alt" is AltGr?

ROU Romanian Programmers... what is that?

Okay, got it. It's a keyboard layout only available from Windows 10.
