Steps to Reproduce:

1. In the import block, specify the path to the module.
2. Hover the cursor over the specified path.
3. If the path contains non-Latin characters (in my case, Cyrillic), a list of escaped character codes is displayed instead of plain text.

The situation is similar in the error text in the terminal.

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
