7z plugin does not display Chinese file names properly

Post by *Poto »

I can't view some zip files with unconventional file encoding properly, it turns into garbled code when I open them

I use the 7z tc plugin.

But I opened these zip files with 7z software normally.

I think this is due to the different file encoding.

So is there any way to fix this problem? I want the file names to display properly.

If you have installed 7z software I suggest to install the Total7zip TC plugin
and point it to your 7z installation in the Total7zip.xml file.
This will provide all functions of 7z compared to the outdated 7z plugin
and may be helps in your case.

Try right clicking on [auto] in the sorting header and change the encoding manually. It seems to be detected incorrectly, probably because of some bad header flags.
