Some testing gives this:
(decode-coding-string
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\Propri\202taire"
'cp437)
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\Propriétaire"
IOW, your environment seems to be in Windows' OEM encoding. So do
things work if you set locale-coding-system to that? You may have to
execute (codepage-setup 437), before you can use 'cp437.

PS: I'm not sure why you think any of the other messages is relevant,
none of them seems to say anything about encodings issues, which are
clearly your problem here. Of course I may be missing something.
