UnicodeEncodeError from craft

Fri Jul 9 23:15:50 BST 2021

Boost has some file paths that deliberately employ non-ASCII characters, I think as part of a test.
When craft -i caused boost to get updated, it produced a bunch of errors.  The key is probably
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\x9f' in position 137: character maps to <undefined>

The call stack refers to cp1252.py (Windows-1252 or CP-1252 is a single-byte character encoding of the Latin alphabet says Wikipedia), which seems like the wrong thing to be converting to or from since modern Windows file names are in what MS calls "Unicode", actually UTF16.

The messages suggest there might have been problems deleting the directory, but perhaps the problem is just in formatting a message for the log.
At any rate, craft reports successful completion of the task, and goes on with other builds.

PREVIOUS REPORTS
1. ACCESS DENIED
Perhaps the issue was that snoretoast was currently in use--namely with all the previous notifications.
I cleared all its notifications from the notification area and was able to delete bin\snoretoast.exe from 
the command line of the same powershell session in which craft got ACCESS DENIED.
Craft -i kdiff3 then resumed, building snoretoast and continuing on.
Which led to the error above.

2. PNG2ICO
Since I couldn't build it I didn't.  The build of kdiff3 seemed to work OK.
