Adding a calendar fails when the given name contains special characters on Windows #262

Closed huljar closed 5 years ago

huljar commented 5 years ago

I have tried adding my personal calendar from the hosted exchange of my organization. However, when I gave it a name containing a German umlaut ('ö' in this case), adding the calendar after completing the wizard failed with the following error message:

error roughly says: An error occurred while adding the calendar with address ... It will not be available.

When I replaced the 'ö' with 'oe', everything worked fine.

I remember doing the same thing on Linux (Debian stable) and this problem did not occur; using 'ö' worked fine.

@huljar Please check if the changes in #279 fix this issue.

I can confirm that #279 fixed the issue for me. It's working perfectly now! Currently using TB 60.7.0 and Lightning 6.2.7. Thanks :)
