  • [What encoding/code page is cmd.exe using?](http://stackoverflow.com/q/1259084/205233) might have useful information. – Filburt Jan 18 '17 at 12:24

    What is the output of the command `chcp`? It appears that the thousands separator has been set to 'ÿ', named LATIN SMALL LETTER Y WITH DIAERESIS. This is 0xFF in Microsoft codepage 1252. What appears as the thousands separator in your regional settings? – lit Jan 18 '17 at 12:51

    A quick work-around is to state the `/-C` option of `dir`, so the thousands separator is suppressed... – aschipfl Jan 18 '17 at 13:01
