I have a setup to transfer my files from my Windows machine to my Android phone via Syncthing. I notice that some files whose names have emojis are renamed to strange Chinese characters: - 🌒 Cߌ⠃ - 🌓 Cߌ㠃 - 🌔 Tߌ䠔 - 🌕 Nߌ堎 As the result in my phone they are write-protected. I'm unable to delete them: ![](https://i.sstatic.net/xj6VR.png) However files whose name contains this emoji ✔️ are not affected. Not sure if this is relevant to the problem, but for full information, when I try to remove this protection, diskpart doesn't detect my Android phone.
