    Description

      Current realization of platform/tooling scripts on Windows is using WSH (Windows Scripting Host) as JS engine which works unpredictable with unicode symbols (incorrect reading/writing of UTF-8 encoded files, incorect passing of unicode paths as arguments to another scripts, etc.)

      Switching to NodeJS can help to resolve many of unicode related issues in cordova-windows projects.
