<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Change Chinese File Names on English Windows</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <H2>Change Chinese File Names on English Windows</H2> Files created on Chinese Windows can have file names in Chinese. If these files are saved on a floppy disk and moved to a computer running English Windows, programs running in English Windows can't access these files. The program on this web page can detect Chinese file names and convert them to a file name that can be read on English Windows. <P> The program, <A HREF="download/cfiles.exe"> cfiles.exe</A>, is a DOS program so it doesn't have a nice interface, but it should be pretty easy to use. Save the program someplace useful (I suggest C:\Windows\Command or C:\Windows). Assuming that the files you want to convert are on a disk in your a: drive, you could convert the files by either: <P> Opening up a DOS window and typing:<BR> cfiles a:\ <P> or <P> Clicking on the Start button in Windows, selecting "Run", using browse to find cfiles.exe and adding a:\ after cfiles.exe in the Open text box. <P> What the program does is rename the file to chnfileN, where N is a number (a different one for each file). The extension of the file (.doc, .txt, etc.) should be retained. The original name is not retained anywhere. The contents of the file are unchanged. Every Chinese file in the directory is converted. The program won't look in subdirectories under a:, you would have to call it again with the full name of the subdirectory. <P> It will print out a progress report. You need to hit return to exit after it finishes. <P> The author has endeavoured to make the program accurate and safe, but users are still advised that they use it at their own risk. </BODY> </HTML>
