It seems that your .obj/.mtl files aren't UTF-8 encoded and therefore decoding the image path fails. This is not a bug in Blender since all files are expected to have UTF-8 encoding. Please try to convert the encoding.

For further assistance please post a question on [Blender's StackExchange ]], https:*blenderartists.org/ or the [ https://blender.chat/home | Blender support channel .

Thanks, I changed .mtl file unicode to UTF8 and it's worked. I did it with Notepad++, Encoding>Convert to UTF8
