I think it looks great, but I use neither Teracopy nor Fastcopy, so I can't test this out.

What copy app you use? Or just use plain and simple windows copy?
I strongly recommend Teracopy.

I strongly recommend Teracopy.

My main file manager is Altap Salamander so I use the built-in move/copy manager it has.  I very rarely use regular Windows Explorer.

you should not configure the TXT, but the INI file. It is best to do that from inside the program via the user's graphic interface:

Are you using 1.0.0 from "here", or 1.0.1 from his blog, https://dual-copy.bl....com/p/download.html Just maybe they behave differently on this?

Tested in 1.0.1 with chinese characters in Teracopy Path and Favorites paths and working OK.
Check if your Text Editor save the Dualcopy.ini and Fav.txt in UTF-8 format.

I don't know what happened to that error, and I deleted it since then. Now I test 1.0.1 and it works well.
Thanks :D

Does Dualcopy support command-line scripting (e.g. "to move, open dualcopy.exe FileIn FileOut")? I wonder how well it integrates with file managers which do not rely on Windows shell extensions. (Background: After 10 years or so, I installed TeraCopy Pro on one machine again, FastCopy on another, and I can't decide...  ;D)
