Hi Fabrice,
Both aqFile* and Scripting.FileSystemObject write UTF-8 files with BOM.
To write a file without BOM, you can use this workaround that involves two ADO Stream objects:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31435662/vba-save-a-file-with-utf-8-without-bom/31436631#31436631
The example is in VBScript, but the code can be ported to other languages.
Another way is to use the .NET method System.IO.File.WriteAllText(), which by default uses UTF-8 encoding without BOM. You will need to add the System.IO assembly to project properties > CLR Bridge.
dotNET.System_IO.File.WriteAllText("C:\\no_bom.txt", "привет");
