Bug ID: 52973
           Summary: A file containing special characters in its name is
                    unreadable/unusable
           Product: Wine
           Version: 7.7
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: ntdll
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Steps to reproduce:

1) Create a file name

[start]0x20 0xE2 0x80 0x93 0x20[end]

2) Windows applications will only show it as:

[start] b

No idea where "b" comes from.

3) Trying to open will result in: File not found.

Here's a sample name:

[1 – 2.txt]

Will be listed as:

[1 b]

Which Windows applications?

cmd has no apparent trouble with these filenames. "type" works fine.

notepad on the other hand, couldn't even see "[start]0x20 0xE2 0x80 0x93
0x20[end]" in the Open File box.

0100:trace:file:append_entry long L"[start]0x20 0xE2 0x80 0x93 0x20[end]" short
L"_STA~GFS" mask L"*"

0100:trace:file:init_cached_dir_data L"[start]0x20 0xE2 0x80 0x93 0x20[end]"
L"_STA~GFS"

0100:trace:file:FindNextFileW returning L"[start]0x20 0xE2 0x80 0x93 0x20[end]"
(L"_STA~GFS")

If I enter the name into the Open File box then the file opens without issue. I
can edit and save the changes too.

However, it can see a directory with the same name.

I had no issues at all with [1 – 2.txt]. Which applications have you tested
this with?

To clarify, is the name of the file spelled out with those hex characters, or
does it begin and end with a space? I.e., if interpreted as UTF-8, is the name
of the file " — "?

Looks like it's fixed in Wine 7.9.

There's still this though, if it's different to Windows behaviour.
