Bug description
If you use the details to favorite a folder that has an umlaut in its name (for example “ß”), this favorite is created incorrectly.
However, if you create the favorite via the properties menu, the favorite is created correctly.
{"installed":true,"maintenance":false,"needsDbUpgrade":false,"version":"30.0.2.2","versionstring":"30.0.2","edition":"","productname":"Nextcloud","extendedSupport":false}
Steps to reproduce
- open Details of a folder
- open "..." in Details
- click "add to favorites"
Expected behavior
The creation of the favorite should work just as error-free via the details as via the “direct context menu”
