    I'm not sure why this dialog box has been added because I have been encoding files with the same such "incompatible" characters for years no with no apparent incompatibility. What is this about? Is there a way we can disable this dialog box? Under no circumstances do I want my files renamed, I'll take my chances since I have never had an issue.

    Where has this issue come from out of nowhere?

    If the system stops and restarts is this dialog box going to pop up and keep your program from autostarting?

    Thanks Abel.

    Please Abel can you explain the purpose of this pop up warning? I don't understand how these characters are incompatible. I run files almost daily that contain one or both of these character an every one is a successful encode....so I don't understand the need for this.

    In the future can we get an option to turn this off, it is annoying and a time waster and you haven't answered me if this is going to get in the way of auto run.

    Thanks

    Hi, I don't understand the issue, if you can send some screenshot or screencast I may look at it.

    OK Abel, next time I start the program I will get you a screenshot, you either have to let it change your file names or hit cancel twice so this is gonna bork up autorun.....so this isn't something you added? Hmmm...scratches head.

    Here you go Abel. This is something that started for me at least with whatever was the latest version a month ago.

    I think I know understand the issue. With this patched version message should only be displayed when actually necessary.
    Patched FFBatch.exe
