Same wrong encoding for me, Windows 2004 OS Build 19041.630. You can however try their new terminal @cyptus https://github.com/microsoft/terminal

I assume this is a problem with tui-rs?

I just downloaded the latest release for windows 10 but it isnt working. It just shows a blank window in cmd and when I run it from CMD, then it doesnt recognise the command 'gping'. can you help ?

I know this issue is old but I just wanted to say that this isn't even an issue with the terminal being used, just the font.

Windows 10 built-in terminal (conhost) is set to "Consolas" font by default which does not support these braille glyphs. Simply changing to a font with broader glyph support such as the built-in "Cascadia Code" or any nerdfont fixes this: image

Of course the newer Windows Terminal is still preferable for many other reasons, but this is just a matter of different default fonts being used in the two. Maybe adding a note to the README about using non-super-basic fonts would help as this could affect users on all platforms, but this issue can be closed for sure as user-error
