Do you have non-ASCII chars in project folder path?

[ricavalcanti]

I fixed that by moving the project folder from google drive folder to desktop

[ivankravets]

It should be fixed in PIO Core 3.5.0b2. Could you re-test it?

This issue is live again. Or related, maybe?
When using "pio init" with "--ide" parameter (no matter what ide).
I'm talking about PIO CLI install (through "pip install -U https...") last dev version.

I've transferred this issue there: https://github.com/platformio/platformio-core/issues/2100#issue-406915782 - all details is there now.

We have just released a new version 2.7.0, please upgrade.

Please note that we HIGHLY recommend moving to PlatformIO IDE for VSCode which resolves tons of issues and brings a lot of new features.
