Description

 

 
Using old behavior by applying true to NMakeUseOemCodePage property solves this issue.

 in VCProject.cs​

			// Project globals (project GUID, project type, SCC bindings, etc)
			{
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("  <PropertyGroup Label=\"Globals\">");
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <ProjectGuid>{0}</ProjectGuid>", ProjectGUID.ToString("B").ToUpperInvariant());
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <Keyword>MakeFileProj</Keyword>");
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <RootNamespace>{0}</RootNamespace>", ProjectName);
				VCProjectFileGenerator.AppendPlatformToolsetProperty(VCProjectFileContent, ProjectFileFormat);
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <MinimumVisualStudioVersion>{0}</MinimumVisualStudioVersion>", VCProjectFileGenerator.GetProjectFileToolVersionString(ProjectFileFormat));
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <NMakeUseOemCodePage>true</NMakeUseOemCodePage>");  //add this line				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("    <TargetRuntime>Native</TargetRuntime>");
				VCProjectFileContent.AppendLine("  </PropertyGroup>");
			}
