Some events (like route add) may produce error message.
On non-english Windows this message will be also non-english.
And the encoding will be broken.

Can you please try the OpenVPN 2.3-alpha3 releases? The 2.3 release contains a lot of code changes to the UTF-8 and Windows charset handling in general.

I can't look at the original error message, but I'd second what dazo has asked for: please check how 2.3.2 and git master behave regarding unicode on windows - I think d12fk has done fairly good work there in fixing UCS-16, UTF-8, codepage, etc. problems, but some might still be left.
If we don't hear from you, we consider this to be fixed, and will close the ticket on Feb 15.

Closing this ticket now, barely 8 months later than announced.
If the problem still exists in 2.3.6, please reopen.
So I suppose there are encoding problems both in openvpn and its GUI
