This issue has recently been resolved in the R package tinytex:

install.packages('tinytex', repos = 'https://rstudio.r-universe.dev')
# remember to restart R after installation

Basically you need to either move or reinstall TinyTeX to a location where the path does not contain non-ASCII characters, e.g.,

tinytex::reinstall_tinytex()
