Hey,
today I installed new version of Windows 8 called Windows 8.1 Preview (code name: Windows Blue). When I tried to install some applications as: PHP-Storm or Pidgin i get Error.
Error looks like this: "NSIS Error".
I tried to found soloution. I didn't found anything... So I started to debug it.
When I connect my hotmail account with my OS my User name was Ľuboš Beran and path to my folder was ...bla-bla/Users/Ľuboš Beran/blabla/. My name was a problem.
So I tried to copy installer file to location: "C:\".
Installer successfully installed my software and I am really happy! :D If you will hava same problem, you can't have special characters in your Account name. :-)
Enjoy your new Windows.
