I specified «» quotes in the settings, but Auto-Insert does not work. How can this problem be solved?

N++ currently actively rejects any non-ASCII chars for the user defined matched-pairs. So only char-codes 0-127 are accepted (and as the 127 is the DEL, in fact 0-126, so the ‘~’ is the last one)

IDK if this is a holdover from the N++ distant non-unicode past or there is a deeper reason. If you will opt to search an existing / create new N++ GitHub issue for it, here are the proofs of such rejections for the possible issue:
