@todoooo : ParaView master does not build against an official release of VTK.
A simple debug steps for this issue would be to bisect it with ParaView.
It was a generic statement, not intended specifically for you.
In any case, since this is a regression and it used to work before, by bisecting we could identify which commit breaks it.
Do not hesitate to open another topic for your build issues.

Hi guys, glad to tell you that this issue can be solved thank to win10 utf8 setting mentioned by @todoooo .
Follow the instruction from here
Here is my process:
- Save Fusion manifest to file “paraview.exe.manifest”, change property ‘name’ of element “assemblyIdentity” to “paraview”
- Find “mt.exe” in windows kit dir(e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.18362.0\x64\mt.exe)
- run command
mt.exe -manifest paraview.exe.manifest -outputresource: path-to-paraview.exe
After these operations, 2 issue above solved:
- paraview5.8 can read file with non-ascii path
- pvpython can read file with non-ascii path
@ymjia Thanks for the feedback!
This fix won’t be needed in Paraview 5.9, but I’m glad it solved your immediate problem.
Thanks a lot for your instruction. I have tested on Win10 1909 version and ParaView 5.8 these 3 steps work indeed. There is my paraview.exe.manifest screenshot and 3rd command: mt.exe -manifest D:\paraview.exe.manifest -outputresource:D:\ParaView-5.8.0-Windows-Python3.7-msvc2015-64bit\bin\paraview.exe
I want to post the manifest code provided by Ym Jia, but there might be some thing wrong with my browser that the code can’t display entirely. So I can just post the screenshot if it can help.
