I just update my computer to Windows 8.1, and the remind me a thing.
If user change the computer default language for non-unicode program, the tabs opened in TC will became if the path of the directory contain non-ascii character like Chinese. The tab's name will change to nonsense words.
I am not sure how and where TC stores the opened TABs path, but I believe it's possible to make those TABs "survived" after a normal user changed the machine's default language.
Regard.
Tabs path saves in unicode

By default wincmd.ini (where your tabs are) is in ANSI encoding which can't transfer non-latin characters between encodings, so there is no way for TC to do it for you.
If you change language, you should always keep in mind that all ANSI configurations (of all programs) with non-latin characters may become broken.
However you can resave file to convert encoding. TC is able to work with Unicode wincmd.ini, just open this file in your text editor (in correct encoding) and save it as Unicode UTF-16 LE with BOM.
