[SP Bug]: Replacement character prints for names of Form objects containing an umlaut

[Vorganger]

Severity

Minor. A minor defect that doesn''t violate the application''s functionality when tested, but influences the expected result. A design error wobe one example. A bug that doesn't affect the functionality or operation of the app but can be detected visually, for example, a typo in the text.

Priority

Low. All else (typos, missing icons, layout issues, etc.).

Description

The mod I have created using Skyrim Platform, Elden Equip, shows names of Forms in an equipment widget, in addition to many other features. A mod user reached out to me and noted that the name retrieved from a weapon mod Mjöllnir SE shows a replacement character. The character happens to be 'ö' but this issue could possibly extend to other umlaut characters.

In the case of Mjöllnir SE, the name "Mjöllnir" prints.

Actual result

In the case of Mjöllnir SE, "Mj�llnir" prints.
