Navision to support default file export as ANSI encoding

Image
As and when we export any data from Navision in txt format, this should always export in the format ANSI encoding, as default. With this one, some of the languages like  Arabic, or Hebrew or even Turkish don't support ANSI encoding.  For example: when i try to get the context " ğşiğ"  in notepad and save the file with ANSI encoding, then it's automatically saving it as "ðþði". Either the text will be scattered especially in case of Arabic or the special characters will show some random vague pictures But, when you convert the file with the format Encoding UTF-8, then the file characters in file will show in correct format as it should be.

Error 1920. Service 'Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server [DynamicsNAV110]' (MicrosoftDynamicsNavServer$DynamicsNAV110) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

Image
This is very common error which most you have faced during the installation of NAV 2018 on Windows 10. I found the similar error in my personal laptop which is in work-group and not in domain I found that the user which we mentioned during the installation is already having an admin rights but still i was unable to install the NAV 2018. After the multiple iterations and some workaround solution, it triggered to me to use the same account "NT Service\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS" which is used in the SQL service. And, guess what, finally it works. But thought its just a work around solution but the mystery of this error is yet to unveiled. I am not a domain expert but i would really looking forward to see the real reason behind this mystery. Will keep you posted for further updates, till then workaround solution could help.
