Thanks!
Both editions, 32-bit and 64-bit, behave the same way here: It's necessary to pass the code page:
text readfile("bat.bat",,,936);
But my Windows is
not 936:
Code: Select all

Default OEM code page: 437 (OEM - United States)
Active OEM Code Page: 437 (OEM - United States)
When you select Help | Various Information, what is shown in the above section (in 32-bit and 64-bit XYplorer)?
Sorry, you already did that! Let me think...

Looks almost identical. Main Contents Font: 微软雅黑 9.75 ... could that make a difference?

I've already changed it to the following content:
It's still not showing correctly.
The 32-bit version is correct.

Currently out of ideas.
It works with text readfile("bat.bat",,,936);, right?

After adding the parameter "936", it shows correctly.
Because I have a lot of xys files (over a hundred), I need to modify the commands one by one.
I think users in other countries might encounter similar issues.
Will you continue to maintain the 32-bit version? For example, if new features are added to the 64-bit version, will they also be added to the 32-bit version?
If you keep maintaining the 32-bit version, I’ll just stick with the 32-bit version. Because for the two issues I reported, the 32-bit version works fine.

No, the 32-bit version will more and more fall behind.
I'll rather try to fix the issues in the 64-bit version.

In a few days, I’ll install Win8.1 (Multilingual version) and choose German. Then I’ll see if these two issues still appear.
Thanks a lot for your help.
