Mapping rule doesn't work with accented characters (a → à, c → ç, etc)

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use the Mapping rule to rename files by adding accent marks. For example, I want to rename:

a_partir_de_synth.mp3 → à_partir_de_synth.mp3
ca_depend_de_synth.mp3 → ça_dépend_de_synth.mp3

The preview shows no changes, and the files keep their original names. It's like ReNamer completely ignores any mapping where the only difference is an accented character. Is this a known issue?

I'm on Windows 11, using the latest ReNamer Lite version.

The skip extension option needs to be unticked, when your match includes the file extension
