Description
Host: Windows 8 Pro x64 system language:Chinese VirtualBox version: 4.2.4-81684-Win
Double click the install file VirtualBox-4.2.4-81684-Win.exe to install the software, but it prompt an error messagebox. The message below:
Installation failed! Error:系统找不到指定的路径。
And no VBox.log file create.
I find it is caused by my chinese user name. VirtualBox can't recognize my user folder:
"C:\Users\晴天"
Then I create a new user with the English name "qtxie280", and my user folder is:
"C:\Users\qtxie280"
This time VirtualBox can be installed.
