Description
Describe the bug
When you use QL to view a file, example image, in a folder that has Japanese characters in the folder name, the image is not viewed properly. It is zoomed in, and going next image or full screen makes it become blank, not showing anything in the window.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open a folder with Japanese characters in the folder name.
- Press spacebar to preview any image file in that folder.
- Press left or right to change image, or full-screen button.
- Image not viewed properly. Full screen doesn't work. Change image/file doesn't work.
Expected behavior
Images are viewed normally like when in folders with English names
Desktop (please complete the following information):
- OS Version: Windows 10 1903
- QuickLook Version: 3.6.5 msi version

Research direction
Reproduce this on Windows 10 using an image in a folder with Japanese characters, then inspect the image preview, navigation, and full-screen paths involved in QuickLook. Done means images display normally and changing images or entering full screen works in such folders, matching behavior for folders with English names.
