Problems with file associations if non-Latin letters are in filenames.

MS Word 2010 can't open files if filename contains letters of some alphabets.

Hi there!

My configuration

PlayOnLinux: 4.1.3 (deb)

OS: Linux Mint Mate

 

I've installed MS Office 2010. Everything is working fine. I tuned .docx-files to be opened by PlayOnLinux. If filename contains only Latin letters (for instance, file.docx) it is opened without any problems. But if filename contains letters of other alphabet (Russian and so on, for instance, «файл.docx»), then nothing happens.

Can I fix it myself? Or fix it in next versions, please.

Can you run the command

playonlinux файл.docx and tell me what the terminal answers?

seems i was wrong. WORKS GREAT!
the version directly from this page was in fact, more recent than the one i installed from the sofware manager of linux Mint Cinnamon.
