Hi, I use FileZilla in Japan. I updated the FileZilla App to the latest 3.66.0 today, and now I'm facing an issue that all folder/file names including Japanese letters are garbled and completely unreadable (Image attached).
I use macOS Ventura 13.5. Is there anyone who is having the same problem? As the local pathname I bookmarked in Site Manager is not garbled, the link between the bookmarked path and the garbled path is disconnected. So I cannot reach the local directory by selecting the bookmark. Since most directory names are garbled, I cannot even tell which one is the right path I need, which is really annoying.

This is puzzling, none of the code dealing with filenames has changed.

Thank for reporting this issue, it will be fixed in the next version.
There is a workaround: Start FileZilla from the Terminal like this:You may need to adjust the path depending on where you extracted/moved application to.
