Noticed there is some Mandarin showing in a cstring in the debugger, wondered if anyone can read it and translate?
TIA
I gotta think there’s not going to be anything useful there but catfish with ANSI seasoning.

ChatGPT: Unfortunately, the text in the image isn’t in any readable human language. It’s garbled / corrupted characters, likely caused by:
- Missing font (e.g., the original used a special or non-installed font).
- Wrong encoding (e.g., ANSI vs Unicode mismatch).
- Or a conversion issue (copied or exported from another program such as Clarion, Word, or PDF).
So there’s nothing to translate, since the symbols don’t correspond to any real language (not Chinese, Korean, or Japanese — just broken text).
Dont know what you mean here.
It is the C6 debugger running on Win11 and havent tried the C11 debugger.
I’ll need to look into what @Nardus_Swanevelder has suggested. It didnt occur to me to use an Ai to see what it suggests, but its not the first time I’ve seen this and the computer still hangs from time to time, which needs a reboot, something I wouldnt expect with Win11 and Vmware.
Still means nothing…
You’re in the debugger, expand the variable and if any of the “.” characters after the word “connection” are 0 then what you’re seeing is just random bytes that happen to be in memory.
I did that and they were all nulls. Its Interesting though… 
These resemble Traditional Chinese characters, but they are not actual ones, they might be garbled or corrupted characters.
