Description

I'm trying to encrypt files with japanese characters e.g 露の難病少女 新潟で.txt. It ends up in encryption failed and reports "input error"
Input error: Error while running C:/Program Files (x86)/GNU/GnuPG/gpgtar.exe:
gpgtar: error stat-ing `?????? ???.txt': The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

It works fine without archive files with tar.

Kleopatra
Version 2.2.0-gitfb4ae3d (2015-11-12)
Using KDE Development Platform 4.13.3

and
