Thanks in advance.

THe issue is probably caused by some broken shell extension. Other question is - are you running Salamander as administrator? Also, it might be possible that there is something wrong with the access right to the files.
It seems you have windows set to English and the files you can't do anything with do have Polish diacritics. Salamander does not support Unicode. You can avoid this problem partially by setting the general configuration to Polish.
run sontrol.exe and in Control Panel\Clock and Region\Region > Tab Administrative > Language for non unicode programs > Change system locale

Dear SelfMan,
Many thanks for your support. You have right. Not need run AS as admin, but need change language.
What do you thing, if I want use English, AS will do something with support Unicode in future?
One more time for your time and help.

The mentioned setting does not change the User Interface language, but it does enable the accented characters to be readable by non unicode application. Salamander's unicode support is not expected in the near future. That matter is not that simple.
