Same problem for me (with é). I had to revert to 4.0.7 for my session to open in the correct folder. I tried every releases in-between except 4.0.1, 4.1.0 and 4.1.1

I have the same problem (in Windows 11 Pro 22H2, OS Build 22621.3593).

If i try to right-click on and ipynb file (using file explorer, and in a path with non-ascii chars) it opens JupyterLab Desktop (so far so good), but it doesn't open any file, and it opens in the condabin folder of the python environment.

This happens in versions 4.1.8-1, 4.1.5-1, 4.1.4-1, 4.1.2-1, 4.1.1-1, 4.1.0-1 (i've tryed all of those) and then skip to 4.0.7-1, and in this version it works just fine.
