--win-per-user-install fails if username constains 'ó' or 'é'

--win-per-user-install fails if username constains 'ó' or 'é'

I use jpackage constantly and today I had a user who couldnt run the .exe after installed. After some tests I figured it out. Its because the username folder had a "é" as his name was 'josé'. So basically the folder was ..josé/appdata/.../software

Steps to replicate the issue:

JDK 14.0.2 use --win-per-user-install Install in a folder with a letter "é" or "ó" Try to run the app.

If you use the win-console, you can see its going to give an error it cant instantiate the VM.

Made some extra tests and the bug doesnt happen on newer JDK's. Is there anyway to fix this with this beryx runtime plugin?

This was a jpackage issue. I'm afraid there is no way to fix it within the plugin.
