I’m getting the exact same error, how did you solve it?

For everyone who is getting this error, I just moved my source folder under C:/ and ran yarn run dist after clean package installation and it worked.

Possible Cause: Electron Builder script file doesn’t support UTF-8 Chars, hence, if your folders are using Hebrew, Chinese, Turkish etc chars, it most likely going to fail.
Solution: Simply move your source files in a ASCII supported folder path.

You need to have a full ASCII path so please consider to have an ASCII windows username.
