Fatal Python error: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding

 

Hi 

I have built pcbnew.exe x64-Debug with vs2019 16.10.2 KiCAD commit 00b4134eb827 + some changes I am doing and am getting the above message on startup.

I have no idea what to do to resolve the issue and no idea what code is causing it: no exceptions thrown to help debug.

Typing in Python in cmd results in.
Python 3.9.1 (tags/v3.9.1:1e5d33e, Dec  7 2020, 17:08:21) [MSC v.1927 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

-Markus
