Is there any work around ( microsoft guys) , where all the characters retain
their hex values ( \x00 to \xff ) when passed to exe irrespective of the

Off-the-top-of-my-head ideas:
1. Use CreateProcessW (only an option if you can rule out 95/98/ME support)
2. Pass
The character U+0904 (DEVANAGARI LETTER SHORT A) is not a part of ISCII 91.
Neither was it encoded in any of the earlier versions of ISCII. Hence
according to the ISCII standard this character simply cannot be formed.

discouraged.

I have developed an application which attempts to store

this is not the proper way to store Arabic, however,
