I want to read an XLSX file on Windows 10 which is saved in a folder with not Latin characters. Even if I tried different ways and modules, it fails. In my example the folder+filename contains Russian characters. With Latin alphabets everything works fine. The problems seems related to the module Zip::Archive. Any suggestions?

use Spreadsheet::XLSX;
use Win32::LongPath;
use Win32;
use utf8;

my $path="Ршзефф\\faoü.xlsx";
#my $path="Ршзефф.xlsx";
#my $path="faoü.xlsx";
#my $MYPath = Win32::GetANSIPathName ($path);
my $MYPath = shortpathL ($path);
print "$MYPath \n\n";
            my $excel = Spreadsheet::XLSX -> new ($MYPath);
            my $counter=0;
             foreach my $sheet (@{$excel -> {Worksheet}}) {
                if ($counter eq 0){#work only on first sheet now
                        $sheet -> {MaxRow} ||= $sheet -> {MinRow};
                        foreach my $row ($sheet -> {MinRow} .. $sheet 
+-> {MaxRow}) {
                            $sheet -> {MaxCol} ||= $sheet -> {MinCol};
+ 
                            foreach my $col ($sheet -> {MinCol} ..  $s
+heet -> {MaxCol}) {
                                my $cell = $sheet -> {Cells} [$row] [$
+col];
                                    if ($cell) {
                                        my $cell_value = ($cell -> {Va
+l});
                                        $cell_value =~ s/\n//g;
                                        print  $cell_value;
                                    }
                                print  "\t";    
                            }
                            print  "\n";
                        }
                    $counter=1;
                }
            }
