That shouldn't happen, as Emacs uses Unicode to get text from the
clipboard. There should be no charsets involved here.
Does this happen in "emacs -Q"? If so, what version of Emacs is that,
and is it a native Windows build or a Cygwin build?
If this doesn't happen in "emacs -Q", look at your customizations to
find the culprit, especially those related to encoding/decoding
selections.

This shouldn't be needed (and if it is, then it's impossible in
general, because Windows attempts to translate characters, and does
that lossily). Suggest instead to find out why Unicode retrieval
doesn't work.
