High ASCII character not recognized in folder name

[PodcastSteve]

I have a client assets folder that uses ASCII character ALT-0216 (Ø) as the initial character in the name of the folder (the client is from Denmark and uses the Ø character in its name). When I try to view that folder in Adobe Premiere Pro 2022 using the Media Browser, the folder is not visible (the file folders list skips it completely). When I change the character back to a standard English capital "O" it works fine.

Can someone suggest why this behavior is happening?

Win10. PR 2022. I see a folder with the Ø in the first position or another. It sorted to the end of the alphabet. Check to see if it is there but at the end.

Also, note that Media Browser sorts folders in the same order as files - so the folder ØTest was after the folder Test and also after the file Wildlife.mp4.

I'll have to check that. I mistakenly assumed it would sort near the Os...

[PodcastSteve]

Yep, it goes to the bottom. Thanks!

Stan may well have it, as the letter order sort in Norsk/Dansk would  be closer to what he posits.

But if your computer is not also set to recognize and work in Norsk/Dansk languages, it may simply have trouble

"reading" that character.

No, it was just sorted to the bottom and I didn't have any reason to think it would be sorted there, so I never scrolled all the way down. Thanks to both of you!

You're welcome!
