Comment (by nicogodet):

 I add `set PYTHONUTF8=1`, re-run `qgis.bat --postinstall` but nope.

 I need to run `qgis.bat` instead of `qgis-bin.exe` to have PYTHONUTF8 in
 os.environ

 {{{
 >>> os.environ["PYTHONUTF8"]
 '1'
 }}}

 {{{
 >>> exec(open('C:/Users/Nicolas Godet/Desktop/Sans titre
 1.py'.encode('utf-8')).read())
 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python39\lib\code.py", line 90, in runcode
