When I run the labelimg.exe file under Windows, after the image is marked, it cannot be saved as an xml file, and the error is as follows: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1291, in saveFile File "", line 1320, in _saveFile File "", line 800, in saveLabels LookupError: unknown encoding: cp65001

Met the exact same issue. I tried building it from github version, but it says sip is missing and stuff. I was trying to find an answer, but nothing. When binary version finally started I was happy, until I discovered it won't save anything.

Is it related to that damn sip an pyqt5? or is it utf-8?

I tried execute commands they offered on stack overflow and it didn't fork. I hope Tzutalin will help us figure it out.

Try to add an system environment variables PYTHONIOENCODING in your computer, and its values is UTF-8.
