[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

My previous Emacs version was 24.5 I believe.

I realized that Emacs starts up normally exactly when the path to the
working directory contains an accented letter. For example if I start emacs
in the folder "D:\a\" it displays the error, but if I start it in "D:\á\"
it works. So this was what distinguished those files from each other.
