Most probably you have locale configuration broken in your system. Check for Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options, in the first tab select some different locale, press Apply, then select back Russian, press Apply again. Check the "Number" field for the number representation. If it's still broken, press the "Customize" button and under "Digit grouping symbol" select the space character from the drop-down list (or enter it manually, but you should enter a non-breaking space, that is Alt+0160 using the numpad).

I tried change regional settings but without any positive result.
In any other applications Alt+0160 output as `space`... On other computer with same Windows settings all fine. In Character Map I see it as space also.

Which font do you use in Ctrl-Q window?

Manually change "Digit Grouping" helped! thanks!

It looks like space but it is not really space, it's a non-breaking space. That is, when you insert it, applications will not be able to apply word-wrapping at this position. So, if you write e.g. "8 520 712 bytes" with usual spaces, and this text appears near the right border of the window it may become wrapped like this:

8 520
712 bytes

But if you use non-breaking spaces there instead of usual spaces ("8 520 712 bytes"), this whole string will look the same, but will be treated as a single word. If there's not enough space for it, it will be put to the next line as a whole, without splitting in half.
