Hi all,

We have a program with the standrad web browser control on its screen. In value property we have: c:\\mydir\\αβγ

The last three characters are the three beginning characters of the greek alphabet.

When we run the program, sometimes crashes, sometimes runs ok (...)

We have no problem when path has only english characters.

Our version is 10.0.1 on Windows 10.

Same program runs ok with version 8.1.0 regardless the characters contained in value property.

Thank you

In Your Windows /  Language settings, have you changed the language to Greek?

What you might try is, use the before procedure for the web browser and modify web-1 (or whatever handle you have for the browser control) value "c:\\mydir\\αβγ".
