Hi Serge, 'mbcs' is what python uses to mean the current configured encoding. I would guess that the encoding of sys.stdout is different when using visual studio output console than the console.
You could try a different encoding method by setting the PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable before starting your exe, eg: SET PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8:ignore Look for PYTHONIOENCODING here https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html for more details.
