I've been made aware that mail clients can mess with encodings, so here's the previous file zipped as well.
Cheers,

Hi,
Attached is an example from Denis. (It seems to read 'New Group Policy
Object', so it looks like it even might be broken on the default
generated name)
The accented e appears to be at position E9 in the Latin-1 code page,
while the UTF-8 representation is supposed to be two bytes, C3 A9.
Cheers,
Garming

Hi Garming:
Can you please send me a gpt.ini that has non-UTF8 characters?

Hi,
According to Denis, cc'd here, using a French RSAT appears to be
writing GPT.INI files which are not UTF-8, but instead using ISO-8859 to
represent accented characters (in the display name for a GPO).

"The gpt.ini file MUST be encoded in UTF-8..."
According the the documentation, it is required to be UTF-8, so
something doesn't quite add up here. Denis can probably reconfirm
himself, but any assistance reproducing or confirming this behaviour
would be appreciated. Assuming this is an issue, it's unclear what the
effect of other locales is.
Cheers,
Garming
