I also had issue when I was working on a pycharm project back when I was on windows. During setup it asked me "What's your name?" and my name has a cheeky accent which Windows was decided should be the name of my Home folder. Home folder also has appdata and whatnon so which the build system didn't expect to have a an accent in the folder path.
I ended up having to create a different folder and link to it then move all the path configurations to that folder link just so I could get imports working.
