Is it just me or does NP++ have problems opening a file thats filename includes international characters? Is this a NP++ error or an error of how portable apps compiles it?

I made a txt file with ß in the filename and ß in the content.
It opened correctly but misinterpreted the ? as something cryptic. I could write more ß´s to the file and save it but when I opened it again the ß were displayed as garbage.
I retried the whole thing with another file and now it works. Weird.

Is the file on UTF-8 or ISO-something-something?
If the file is in one coding and N++ detects another coding instead it will happen that.
file with the editor so I don't know about the coding.

I think that Windows' Notepad uses the ISO-something-something so check the Format menu to see the encoding on the bottom, where it says "Encode in ..." one of those must be checked, there's your encoding.
