When the path contains Chinese characters, cann't be opened

Asked by can

I tried to use this method (faq #230234) to deal with the Chinese characters path.
But it cann't opened.

#My Code

dirEng = r"D:\UpdateConfig\Test by English ptah\ConfigTool.exe"
 dirChn = r'D:\UpdateConfig\中文测试路径\ConfigTool.exe'

App.open(dirEng)
App.open(unicode(dirChn,"utf8"))

#Report error
 [log] App.open D:\UpdateConfig\Test by English ptah\ConfigTool.exe(7000)
 [log] App.open D:\UpdateConfig\中文测试路径\ConfigTool.exe(0)
 [error] App.open failed: D:\UpdateConfig\中文测试路径\ConfigTool.exe not found

What method can be used to open the Chinese path of the software?Please advise.

Pathnames containing utf-8 encoded characters still make problems in various features of Sikuli.

This problem will probably only be solved in version 2.

So if it does not work, then you have to either use pathnames that work or use other methods to achieve what you want (e.g run from command line and use the start command to start your app before starting the script)

I'm really looking forward to version 2.
