Hi, from what I can tell, unicode-related issues (in several programming languages) are often specifically related to the MS Windows operating system rather than to R (though that does not imply it is irrelevant here).
You may wish to have a look at: https://blog.r-project.org/2020/05/02/utf-8-support-on-windows/ This may provide directions to solving your issue. Yours. Olivier.
