I found an temporary workaround when installation. Just check Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support. No reboot needed!

You can see this option by going to Settings and then: All Settings -> Time & Language -> Language -> "Administrative Language Settings" or run control intl.cpl,,1.
