Using the latest version of Pandoc on Windows 10, executing pandoc --version results in the following output:
pandoc 3.1.13
Features: +server +lua
Scripting engine: Lua 5.4
User data directory: C:\Users\Spandoc: : commitBuffer: invalid argument (cannot encode character '\248')
The problem appears to be, that my Windows home folder name contains the Danish character 'ø' (right after the 'S').
This is not a major issue, except the Python library "pandoc" calls pandoc --version on startup, to determine which version is installed, thus becoming effectively useless under these circumstances.
This occurs with version 3.1.13 of Pandoc on Windows 10.

I have tested a few versions, and it seems that the problem first occurred in version 3.0.
Here are the outputs from the latest 2.x version and the first 3.x version:

I note that in 2.19.2 the user data directory doesn't appear correctly: the ø has been garbled.
This seems to be an issue about encodings. Unfortunately, I don't know much about how these things work on Windows systems. Do you have a working Haskell setup, by any chance, which would allow you to compile revised code and tell me if it helps?
