Open chat file in error when generated a different language OneDrive "Teams Chat Files" folder
I use English and Japanese.
At first Teams generated different folder automatically on OneDrive folder.
Mostly works ok of those.
When I put a file on chat on Teams, the file goes into "Microsoft Teams チャット ファイル" file.
This works absolutely fine.
However when I put a file using iPhone Teams app, the files go into English name folder "Microsoft Teams Chat Files".
Then when I try to open the file in English folder on the file tab on top, Destock Teams appears pass wrong URL pass and fail to open the file.

Browser returns me
404 NOT FOUND
It should be %20 instead for %2520 for a space.
This happens in certain condition only.
My PC default display language is Japanese
Windows10 20H2 OS build19042.867
Desktop MS Teams 1.4.00.7174 (64 bit) updated 2021/03/26
My Mobile is iPhone iOS 14.4.1
Teams app on the phone is 3.4.0
I call Japanese folder for JP folder and English folder for EN folder here.
Under OneDrive, there are two Teams folder generated automatically
EN folder: "\Microsoft Teams Chat Files" by iPhone app
JP folder: "\Microsoft Teams チャット ファイル" by desktop app
What happens is:
Put a file from PC on Teams chat, a file goes into JP folder on OneDrive.
This file works ok from my desktop Teams, Web Teams application, iPhone app, receiver's PC
However when I put a file from Team iPhone app chat, the files goes onto EN folder.
It sharing on chat ok and can see Files, ok to download.
However when click from File tab and try to open the file on browser, fail to open.
This happens my end and receiver computer as well.
I found it appears Desktop Teams generate wrong URL using %2520 for a space when the files on EN folder if trying to access from File tab menue.
Photo1. 2x folder under my OneDrive for Teams chat
JP folder"Microsoft Teams チャット ファイル" and
EN folder"Microsoft Teams Chat Files"
Photo2. All files ok if click file from chat.
In this photo "CCK_08042021, from PC.pdf" under JP folder and
"CCK_08042021, from iPhone.pdf" under EN folder
Click file on chat conversion ok, can open file without any issue
Photo3. Then goes "File(ファイル)" tab from top bar menu -
Click "CCK_08042021, from PC.pdf" under JP folder - open ok
However, when click file on EN folder,
"CCK_08042021, from iPhone.pdf" under EN folder fail to open it.
It happens my computer and Receiver's computer.
We tried delete cash, uninstall and re-install.
Open file from Web application - all works fine
Open file from iPhone app - all works fine
Open file from chat converstion - all works fine
Downloads from File tab - down load ok
Click and try to open browser the file in EN folder, the browser returns 404 error
I found when fails, the desktop Teams app apperas passing %2520 instead %20 for a space.
When desktop Teams app pass this URL to browser
https://Xcompany_nameX/User_com/Documents/Microsoft%2520Teams%2520Chat%2520Files/File%2520Name.pdf
fails and return 404
It shoud be %20 instead of %2520

I am not sure if this happens limited only our organization but may have same issue if using multiple language.
Any solution to this?
- When open from Teams, it apperas changed how it works and little bit better now.
When opening the file from "File Tab" before it tried to opem from the website but now changed to open in Teams app. So it shows file ok.
However still having an issue when clike ... and select open in browser, still replies to me 404 error as different link. If correct %2520 splace to %20 then can open file without problem.
Hopefully sorting our the issue perfectly... Anyway it is a little better now
