I have v11.90.0200 but when I click help → Update registration detail... the username does not recognize Unicode UTF-8.
Which Unicode version does XYplorer support?
I attached the screenshot (my name should look like: Nguyễn Khánh Nam)

Works fine here. You sure that's a v11.90.0200 screenshot?

Well, it is very important for
me.
This should definitely work, after all it is the only reason I published today's version!
So you paste "Nguyễn Khánh Nam" and get question marks in the edit field???

Yes.
FYI: I'm using Win 7 x32; locale = EN-US

What happens when you paste Nguyễn Khánh Nam into the address bar?

Maybe the oddity in my language. Letter á is always ok but letter ễ has 2 accent. It is a combination of ê and ẽ

Yes, I know that Vietnamese is a very special case, and that there are some bugs in Windows that only apply to rendering Vietnamese letters.
However, since it works fine here, I'm totally out of ideas.

Just out of curiosity:
Configuration > Fonts
Which fonts are defined there? (I recently had to change them to Arial, in order to be able to see the far East - as we call that part of the world here in Europe - scripts correctly.)

Verdana. I tried different fonts but no use.
btw. I heard that Verdana is the best font for on-screen display so I changed all GUI to Verdana

binocular222, what number is your codepage?
Can you show that double-accented "e" anywhere in XYplorer? ...in Explorer?
