Extended Latin alphabets in directory name cause build to fail

All of a sudden my builds started failing and AFAIK nothing beside’s the Ionic CLI’s version has changed on my system. Apparently the build fails because Gradle can’t access files in the cache, I’m getting a lot of errors like this:

C:\Users\K?ytt?j?\.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\appcompat-v7-27.0.1.aar\eb29d8a598e5db6ae08600831fb85827\res\anim\tooltip_exit.xml: error: file not found.

The files Gradle is complaining about do exist, so that’s not the problem. Notice the “K?ytt?j?” part in the path. That’s supposed to be “Käyttäjä”. Unfortunately I can’t change the name of the home directory, and in any case it wasn’t a problem previously. Right now I can’t think of any other reason why the build would suddenly start failing.

I’ve tried deleting the whole cache and Gradle re-downloaded it without any problems, but it didn’t help with the build problem.

After all the not found errors Gradle prints this:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.
> Error: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: com.android.tools.aapt2.Aapt2Exception: AAPT2 error: check logs for details
