If I move an accented file to the same directory using the command prompt, it works correctly.
move ó.mp3 ó.mp3
However, when I use the same command in a .bat file, the following error appears: the system cannot find the file specified.
@echo off
move ó.mp3 ó.mp3
pause
You should change the code page with this command CHCP /?
@echo off
CHCP 65001>nul
move ó.mp3 ó.mp3
pause
A flagrant mojibake case. I guess that you save the script using Windows' native notepad editor using co-called ANSI encoding. The following commented code snippet could enlighten the problem:
@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL EnableExtensions
REM save current code page (optional)
for /F "tokens=1* delims=:" %%G in ('CHCP') do set "_currentCP=%%H"
REM find notepad's ("ANSI") code page
for /F "tokens=1,2*" %%G in ('
REG QUERY "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\CodePage" -v ACP^|find "ACP"
') do set "_notepadCP=%%I"
REM show flagrant mojibake case
echo %_currentCP%: move ó.mp3 óó.mp3
REM change the active console code page and show right result
>NUL CHCP %_notepadCP%
echo %_notepadCP%: move ó.mp3 óó.mp3
REM reurn the active console code page to saved value (optional)
>NUL CHCP %_currentCP%
pause
Result:
D:\bat\SO\61743331.bat
852: move ˇ.mp3 ˇˇ.mp3 1250: move ó.mp3 óó.mp3
I see above output on my (Central European) Windows. On Western Windows, you could see something like
850: move ¾.mp3 ¾¾.mp3 1252: move ó.mp3 óó.mp3
