Encode it like this:

$.getJSON('<%= Url.ActionOrm("ChangeTypeOfFile", "Opportunity")%>', 
{ fileName: encodeURIComponent(value) }, 
function () {
    displayUploadedFiles(idForOkImg);
});

In c#:

string fileName = HttpContext.Current.Request["fileName"]; //Pr%C3%BCfung
fileName = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(fileName); //Prüfung
