Special characters are lost in db backups


Recommended Posts

I have 1.6.09 installation, and when restoring from a backup made in back office, it is filled with simulation for our country's special characters like æ,ø and å. This is a word for Attachments in Danish: 

        Vedhæftninger  

It looks quite terrible in that nice backoffice...

 

This is shown in back office only, and I have to retype my own name in profile. I also have to g through categories. Headlines in bacckoffice have lost it too. 

 

If I replacce the codes in the sql file, it does not get restored right as characters. I use HeidiSQL. It has always worked fine through the years.

 

Any ideas are welcome...

 

Maybe something like the character handling in PS is corrupt?
