Whenever I start PIP, I get:

Where the correct path is "C:\Users\BürgerGegenFluglärm\AppData..."

The funny thing is that the message mentions the path twice, with
different wrong codings.

I may be wrong, but isn't the error message suggesting that this is a bug in the py launcher instead of in pip? If I remember a post from a recent thread correctly, then pip.exe is just a script using the launcher.
If that's true, shouldn't the recommended:

python -m pip

be a workaround?

I might be wrong, but it's worth a try.
Best,
