[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
My Windows username is Márton.
In one of the files loaded by my .emacs (neotree.el), I added this line:
   (print load-file-name)

1. I start Emacs from the command line with no arguments.
2. I view the *Messages* buffer.

If the directory from which I launched Emacs has an accent in its path,
e.g. "D:\á\", this is printed:
"c:/Users/Márton/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/elpa/neotree-0.5.2/neotree.el"
But if it doesn't, e.g. "D:\a\", this is printed:
"c:/Users/Márton/AppData/Roaming/.emacs.d/elpa/neotree-0.5.2/neotree.el"

(This prevents the neotree package from loading images in the latter case.)
Please see also bug#25038, which seems related.
