I'm not that familiar with encoding issues, but I believe CP720 is an older code page. IF you enter cp 1252 in the console, then gem install sass, does the gem install?

Regardless, given the nature of your question, the best place to report your issue (MinGW build, Ruby 2.4) is https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller2/issues

Yes indeed. CP720 is the DOS encoding for Arabic.

IF you enter cp 1252 in the console,

This should be chcp 1256. The command is "change code page" (chcp). The Windows encoding for Arabic is Windows-1256. Of course, chcp 1252 may also work, but that would be for Western European languages.

Definitely.
