Thanks for the heads-up. I had done some work at some point to try and support non-ascii characters in filenames on Windows but either I missed something here or that broke.
Are you able to run the GUI version from under that directory or the headless binary directly (without going through the server wrapper script)? That might help me determine if the problem is in the binary or the server wrapper.

Its seems the issue is with the wrapper script, using headless binary launches without any issues
