The "Text Input" method will allow a local input method to be used to enter Chinese text. You do not need to use "Text Input" if an input method is being used remotely, as shown in your screenshot.
First user tried default setting, that did not work. I suggested they try “Text Input” but that did not work either. No Chinese text was shown in either case. The user is connecting to my LAB tomorrow, to show me how to enter Chinese characters to form a word from a UK keyboard into Notepad. Then I can replicate the issue.

User said they changed Input method to “Text Input”, and entered Chinese text. Rather than the Chinese they expected, they got ASCII..
