Problem parsing file icon theme with non-english display language

[miguelsolorio]

I created this Symbols File Icon Theme that I've noticed users reporting issues installing/activating the extensions but it seems to only happen in systems with different languages (i.e. non-english). I've never seen this error before and wondering if you may know what is happening so I can help fix or if it's a VS Code issue.

Users have reported that installing an older version and re-installing the current version fixes the issues 🤷

Here are examples of the errors:

I'm not aware of that error.
I tried to reproduce but didn't hit the issue.

The error comes from here:

vscode/src/vs/workbench/services/themes/browser/productIconThemeData.ts

Line 192 in 25af41d

return Promise.reject(new Error(nls.localize('error.cannotparseicontheme', "Problems parsing product icons file: {0}", parseErrors.map(e => getParseErrorMessage(e.error)).join(', '))));

If you see this and have a chance to debug this. The loaded content of the file icon theme seems to be corrupt.
