Additional comments

Windows 10 1809

Does NOT enable the beta UTF-8 support in language settings, because normal user won't have this enabled.

Thanks for reporting! Fix is here: #1307

Using UTF-8 codepage manifest won't help OP here though, since it is supported in v1903+.

Officially Windows 10, Version 1809 (Build 17763) has been out of the support lifecycle for 2-3 years.

Windows Server 2019 is Build 17763 so that's really the only currently supported scenario for it. Mainstream support ends in ~7 months.

Yes, I suggest you upgrade but at least now you have a solution when you do! 😊
