Created attachment 87840 [details] This is when I access the folder normally There's this folder in my home folder called "Romário". I can access it normally from the home directory, but, if I put it inside the Places panel, its path turns to "Rom�rio". Screenshots attached, illustrating the bug.

Thanks for the bug report. How exactly do you create the folder? If I create it in a shell with mkdir, then it shows up in the view as a file of "Unknown" type with the name "Rom�rio". But the same happens in the file dialog, so it's not a Dolphin issue (maybe related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165044 ?). Strangely enough, the "Unknown file" turned into an accessible folder after some time, but you're right that creating a Places Panel entry and trying to open it results in an error message. It doesn't work in the file dialog of, e.g., KWrite either though, so I think it might not be a Dolphin bug. I hope that KIO is the right product. Unfortunately, I'm not really familiar with encoding issues myself.
