Downloading files with Chinese characters in the filenames (Base64 bug)

Dear Team,

I have a problem downloading files for filenames containing certain Chinese characters.

Application.Download(fileStream, sFileName);

Where the filename is for example

(Template_rev12) eFinance IFRS adjustments M01 2023_006_IFRS 24年7月存货调整修正（冲销6月上传7月).xlsx

the filename is Base64 encoded and passes in URL as the x parameter.

/download.wx?res=…&x=…

The problem is that the Base64 encoded filename has a valid “+” character.
Characters ‘+’, ‘/’ and ‘=’ seem to be valid Base64 characters.

Now when the x parameter is passed back to the HTTPRequest from the browser, the ‘+’ character is replaced by a space, as expected.

So the Base64 decode does not work.
It either scrambles the resulting Chinese characters or throws a decode exception, which Wisej logs into a trace.
