# Bug Report ## Problem ### What is expected to happen? After a successful `cordova build android`, it should be possible to open the app in Android Studio. ### What does actually happen? Android Studio can't open the project (`platforms/android`) and fails with a `Malformed \uxxxx encoding.` exception. This exception comes from a wrongly set path inside the `config.properties` in `tools/.gradle` (and is then copied to `.gradle` which is set by a cordova hook during (or after) the build command. The file contains the following content which is copied from the system `JAVA_HOME` variable: ``` java.home=C:\Users\user\.jdks\corretto-17.0.12 ``` Instead, the `\` should be escaped: `java.home=C:\\Users\\user\\.jdks\\corretto-17.0.12`. This issue was introduced in `[email protected]` with the [fix: configure gradle java.home](https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/1795) and is probably a problem only on windows machines. ### Environment, Platform, Device [email protected] Windows 11 ### Version information Android Studio Narwhal Feature Drop | 2025.1.2 Patch 2 Build #AI-251.26094.121.2512.13991807, built on August 26, 2025 Runtime version: 21.0.6+-13391695-b895.109 amd64 VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.
