Wrong characters in BESA software

Problem description

Recently windows 10 introduced multi language support. This can however cause troubles with displaying special characters in any type of software (i.e. µV). Instead you can see something similar to this:

You need install proper language configuration. Press "Add a language" button and select the language pack correct for you. After installation make sure that the new language pack is in the top of the list. Alternatively you can also select one of the installed languages if there is any. When you click on the selected language the up and down arrow will be shown. Press up arrow until selected language is in the top. You should end up with similar configuration:

While this is done you may close all the windows and restart BESA. If the problem still persist try to install other language pack or contact BESA support
