Description Fabio Sirna 2024-01-29 09:31:57 UTC
SUMMARY

I noticed that some rar archives I downloaded from the web are not being opened; checking the file name better, I noticed that some of them contain special characters (e.g.g U+2023, en dash) and Ark gives the following error, where ???? is the special character.
I have tried to replicate this by creating archives by assigning special characters to them, but I cannot replicate the bug.

OBSERVED RESULT

Cannot open /home/user/Downloads/Test ???? Test.ra
No such file or directory

EXPECTED RESULT

To open an extract the files in the archive.
