Reacted by Jhona Simanjuntak@terurin It looks like the setup process is running into problems with Unicode handling. Would you be able to share a download link to the Japanese application you’re using? Having access to a test application would help us reproduce the issue and work on a fix.
"タッチ キーボードと手書きパネル" is "Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service" in English, which is a Windows
default application. Therefore the download link does not exist. And the application maybe appear by Windows' language settings.Reacted by Rohan Barar and NuggetThis issue is also occurring in my environment.
Is there a temporary workaround or planned fix?The problematic software is also “タッチ キーボードと手書きパネル”.
The
detectedfile is encoded in Shift-JIS (CP932).As a temporary measure, I found that enabling the following items allows the process to proceed without issues.
Settings > Time & language > Language & region > Administrative language settings > Change system locale, and check Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support

Same on my Windows VM, of which locale is Korean.
-
Root Cause: The redirect from PowerShell to the Linux host does not handle non-ASCII error strings or mixed encodings gracefully, breaking the bash source command.
-
Workaround: Temporarily change the Windows Display Language to English (US), with Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support checked for the duration of the installation. Once the apps are successfully detected and the setup is complete, you can safely switch the Windows language back to your original preference (e.g., Korean). This bypasses the encoding issues entirely during the critical scanning phase.

I tried to install winapp, but the installing process was stopping at parse detected applications.
I report error log and my enviroment.
Applications using CKJ Font probaby will occur a parsing error.
