display error with non-ASCII characters on windows 1703

[Himyth]

after upgrade to windows creator update which is version 1703, the display is no longer right.

when i trying to ls the directory, it output ? instead of the non-ASCII characters, which is behave the same for both Chinese and Japanese. but dir command work fine.

here is the output byte sequence of both command. I test this in another laptop with windows 10 version 1607, the output byte sequences are identical, and display is right:

and if i type Chinese directly to the cmder, every character i type, the cursor will go right a little bit more than character's width, like they are getting fatter, which is not. in the following screenshots, the white-space between Chinese characters and cursor is not manually added. it just come out of nowhere.

it seems these has something to do with the display, because if i vim some file and type Chinese, despite the display all goes wrong, the content stays correct.

the problem seems to be ConEmu.exe, i got the same result if i run ConEmu.exe directly. any ideas?

thx! that works with the display. but type Chinese still looks fatter than it should be

i think maybe it has something to do with the new render mechanism in 1703?

Free CJK fonts:

• https://www.google.com/get/noto/
  • Noto Sans CJK (Adobe calls it "Source Han Sans")
  • Noto Serif CJK (Adobe calls it "Source Han Serif")

Same problem and changing font doesn't work.

Same problem in ConEmu.
I solved it by using the old version console.

@Victor97 perfect solution! thx

@Victor97
that would make not working on bash on ubuntu feature:

Unsupported console settings. In order to use this feature the legacy console must be disabled.

• When i open it with powershell, it shows that this is what i do not like
  
• can it show with this and solve the problem?

• It can enter the Chinese, but can also delete the "$", enter the Chinese double quotation marks, delete the text will be a problem

try to excecute chcp 936, and then seems to solve the problem you mentioned in deleting text mixed with non-ASCII chars.
so just edit the cmder startup config: user-profile.cmd, add chcp 936>nul
if not use cmd and bash or anyelse, modify the custom task startup command:

• cmd /c [task_command] -> cmd /c "chcp 936>nul & [task_command]"
