Of course you can't. The problem is that app.kali.by is our intranet web server, it can't be seen outside the entreprise LAN.
Maybe I should try to put some files with russian names on github.
I guess the result will be the same.

Ideally, you give us a command line example so we can reproduce.
I can not resolve app.kali.by.

On Ubuntu it works fine, you can see this in an attachement. There's no problem with the encoding of the file names.

Windows character encodings may be special.
Is this issue reproducible on e.g. GNU/Linux?
I am willing to test it on GNU/Linux, but I need a full command line example from you.

Out of curiosity, can you test wget2.exe from https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/releases (there is also a .sig file / PGP signature in case you want to verify the origin).

The parameters `--local-encoding` and `--remote-encoding` are useful for resource names that you put in a command line.

I tried this, it didn't work out.

Did you test `--restrict-file-names` with different options ?

If that doesn't help, there is also `--local-encoding` and `--remote-encoding` to experiment with.

While downloading files with cyrillic names in a recursive mode via wget from a https server, they do not get correct names in a local Windows filesystem. Examples are given in an attachement.
