Good question. You need to restore the locale that was imbued to path. I
don't see an API to get one without replacement.

So probably I need to return the previous locale

It looks like std filesystem uses global locale... (Bad idea. )

Yes it shouldn't be a problem. Just the codecvt need to be installed to
global locale
