Bug report

What operating system do you use ?

Windows 10

List of actions to perform to reproduce the problem:

1. Add any URL into queue in any format (mp3, mp4, flac, etc.).
2. Select destination folder. Make sure at least one folder in the path to the destination folder has a title with foreign language characters (in my case, I used Japanese 日本語 characters ).
3. Start the download.

What is the expected behaviour ?

The downloaded files should appear in the destination folder.

What happens instead ?

The downloaded files appear outside of the destination folder. Specifically, they appear outside of the first folder that contains foreign characters in the destination path.
