Error synchronizing paths with german umlauts (ä,ö,ü)

I was trying to synchronize a FTP with a local folder that contains ö in folder name. Currently WinSCP gives me an Error because it can't collect the file list from that path but in the logs I can see that WinSCP replaces the ö with ÷.

Batch
"synchronize local ""W:\Shared With Me\PFM-Trading\PFM - Trading\Börsen\exCH\FTP"" ""/electricity/""" ^

I do not think this is WinSCP issue. It's rather that your batch file is in wrong encoding.
I'd suggest you store the batch file in UTF-8 encoding and use chcp 65001 command before you use the non-ASCII characters.
For details, see How can I use Unicode characters on the Windows command line?

Or instead, use separate WinSCP script in UTF-8 encoding.
