Jeremy,

This is largely working as advertised but as Andy97 posts we have in effect 
lost our backups. I use Lessbackups Plugin 
(http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com/#LessBackupsPlugin) to keep periodical backups. 
However during backup it always saves the tiiddlywiki by removing any 
extended character through all my tiddlers to � (Diamond with a ? in it).

Save, Save as (From Back stage 
http://www.tiddlytools.com/#SaveAsPluginInfo) are not causing this 
behavior.But "Save As" seems to have triggered an inability to save the 
tiddlywiki (Restart FF fixes this - Updates lost).

I also have http://www.minormania.com/tiddlylock/tiddlylock.html installed.

I am using the updated extension 
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/raw/master/tiddlyfox/extension/tiddlyfox.xpi
 


Just ask if I can help any more.

Thanks
Tony
