how to change ascii table?

[Weiss]

after Englisizing a Japanese Windows 10, FP IDE still shows hierogliphs here and there in FP IDE. When I check menu bar tools -> ascii table, it is still Japanese. How to change that? Can I manually replace the ascii table for FP IDE?

How have you done this?
Windows languages is highly complex and works with junctions. So there is only one windows which is English.

Try this
Win + R
cmd
dir /l

to see such junctions.
Not sure, if this helps you, but I tried to share an idea.

Did you added that on your own?

you must change codepage, for active session:

Code: [Select]

C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32> chcp 437 
C:\FPC\3.2.2\bin\i386-win32> fp.exe   
Or you can change it permanently:
- run regedit
- in the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor add a new String Value named Autorun.
- set the value to chcp 437

thank you everybody for input. Got to a better place now, still an ocasional hierogliph pops with system messages I guess, but generally a usable machine now. At least FP character map does not have them.
