Does anybody know how to solve this?  
It bothers me for a long time.

Hi,  
The issue might be the special characters in your username appearing in the path.  
Something similar is described here (thanks google translate :D): [请问在使用Plots的时候System Error - #13，来自 Jerrywang959 - Julia入门 - Julia中文社区](https://discourse.juliacn.com/t/topic/3331/13)  
You could try to see if another plotting backend works for you in Pluto.
