    It could be due to the command prompt settings. If you wish to make it permanent, you may follow the steps below:

    1. Start -> Run -> regedit
    2. Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]
    3. Add new String Value named: Autorun
    4. Change the value to 'chcp 936'

    You can try to execute the following command in the command prompt and then try again to see if the Chinese character is displayed:

    chcp 936

    Let me know if it helps, thank you.
