Archiving rar via python doesn't work but works via cmd, what should I do?

Question

Python

import os
import sys

my_loc, me = os.path.split(sys.argv[0])
print(my_loc)
target = "C:\\Users\\Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\Scripts"
rarloc = f'C: \\Users\\Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\{me}.rar'
command=f'"c:\\program files\\winrar\\rar.exe" a "{rarloc}" "{target}"'

task = os.system(command)
if not task:
print('Success')
else :print(task)
# output = 1

'''
command = '"c:\\program files\\winrar\\rar.exe" a "C:\\Users\\Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\counter.py.rar" "C:\\Users\\Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\Scripts"'
If in cmd type "c:\\program files\\winrar\\rar.exe" a "C:\\Users\\Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\counter.py.rar" "C:\\Users\\ Cat Kingdom\\Desktop\\Scripts" then works fine
Question - why doesn't it work through python? '''

Answer 1

The path contains Cyrillic. Possibly an encoding problem. Check on the path only with Latin, for starters, and make sure that you have the encoding specified at the beginning of the script file.
