The Win installer of digiKam 5.7 looks blurred on HiDPI screens. The reason is that it uses the old NSIS 2.5. To fix this bug, simply upgrade to NSIS 3.x and use the new command ManifestDPIAware: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Reference/ManifestDPIAware p.s. NSIS 3.x comes with full Unicode support.
The new 5.8.0 bundle use already NSIS 3.x. So it will not a problem to patch the option for Hdpi support. See here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier

Many thanks for the quick fix. I am sorry that I used digiKam 5.7 to report bugs. You linked me to 5.8 but on the digiKam website still 5.7 is advertised as the latest version.
The link is the pre release 5.8.0 not yet published officially. Gilles Caulier
Question about UTF8 support with nsis 3: what’s the gain to enable this s option in build script ?

I provide the Win installer for the program LyX (lyx.org) and can now directly use e.g. Cyrillic letters in the installer text. The installer is translated to different languages including RTL languages like Arabic. The Unicode support of NSIS 3 allows to display correct Arabic script for the first time.
