Archive: Special Characters not supported in file names within zip files

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

When there are special characters in the file name e.g. [char]0x201A these get convert to , ([char]0x00E9) so the filename Tést filenamé.htm in the zip will be called T‚st filenam,.htm when extracted.
