I have recently tried dragging files which have non-English characters in their names from File Explorer into IQ (e.g.: "⚠️Your Gmail storage is 75% full", and similarly with characters from non-English languages), but the resulting links don't open in IQ. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I just tested this on two other computers - on one the problem exists, on the other it didn't. The computers which had the problems were both running Win 11 24H2, while the computer which had no problem is running an earlier version of Win 11.

Interestingly, I encountered another problem with IQ on the Win 11 24H2 computers, which did not exist on the older version of Win11: the reminder dialog on the Win 11 24H2 computers did not display the buttons at the bottom (View, Snooze etc.), whereas these buttons were displayed on the computer running the older version of Win 11.

So apparently this is where the problem lies - yet another fluke of Win 11 24H2...

Hi LM77

Thanks for reporting. w.r.t. the reminders dialog, I've seen this before and isn't related to 24h2. Try this and report back:

  1. Close all instances of IQ
  2. Right-click on the Reminders dialog on the task bar. Click Exit
  3. Open IQ

HTH!
