Having the same problem. An Attempt to replace the single quotes with escaped double quotes did also not work

Yes, that is the trick:
"vue-cli-service i18n:report --src \"./src/**/*.?(js|vue)\" --locales \"./src/locales/**/*.json\""

Only works for me when running from the console (cmd, Powershell, GIT Bash) but not when running from Vue UI web interface. There I get the following error:

$ vue-cli-service i18n:report --src ./src/**/*.?(js|vue)" --locales "./src/locales/**/*.json 'vue)" --locales ".' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

But the command in the "command bar" looks fine. See below:

I have written a small .js wrapping the command.

i18n.js

/* eslint-disable @typescript-eslint/no-var-requires */
const { exec } = require("child_process");
const cmd =
    'npx vue-cli-service i18n:report --src "./src/**/*.?(vue)" --locales "./src/locales/**/*.json"';
exec(cmd, (error, stdout, stderr) => {
    if (error) {
        console.log(`error: ${error.message}`);
        return;
    }
    if (stderr) {
        console.log(`stderr: ${stderr}`);
        return;
    }
    console.log(`${stdout}`);
});

And on package.json

"scripts": {
     
    "i18n:report": "node i18n.js"
  },

I solved this issue on Windows 10 as follows:

1. Replace the single quotes by escaped double quotes.
2. Replace *.?(js|vue) by *.{js,vue} (i.e. curly-braces without leading question-mark).

# package.json
-    "i18n:report": "vue-cli-service i18n:report --src './src/**/*.?(js|vue)' --locales './src/locales/**/*.json'"
+    "i18n:report": "vue-cli-service i18n:report --src \"./src/**/*.{js,vue}\" --locales \"./src/locales/**/*.json\""

PS: It looks like (1) is sufficient, see this comment in #49.
