I tried creating the c-caron in Word and pasting it into the .fg filename for him, and it shows correctly in the Windows directory (martin_nečas_15_1_1999.fg), but when I Auto-Reload Picture from Necas' player profile, it did not update.

Since the historical .fg files I have seen do not seem to have special characters, I also tried it with a standard English c, ignoring the caron (martin_necas_15_1_1999.fg). That does not work either.

What am I missing?

my fix, which usually works, is to find the original filename, right click and rename, and copy the file name
then rename the new file (in another folder) using paste, and then copy the new file back into the original folder (overwriting the original). Works most of the time
