Pharo (SmallTalk) dont open Windows 8
I am having a problem with all the (portable, mountable, etc. ..) versions of Pharo (2.0). I have a PC with Windows 8.1 (Desktop x64) and when trying to open Pharo I get the menu parameters to run it (see picture). This is the portable version of Pharo who is in a Dropbox folder, and open the same exe from another PC (notebook) and runs well. Pharo open right from the "sh" in Ubuntu, in this machine (desktop x64) and the notebook.
The problem persists if I download new / clean versions via Web of Pharo.
On the machine who I use Pharo (Notebook with Windows 7) is in the Dropbox folder (C:/Users/MyUser/Dropbox/Pharo). And it is the same directory as the desktop PC (Windows 8.1).
But I think I found what the problem is. When Pharo opened from the desktop (C:/Users/MyUser/Desktop/Pharo) did not walk, but when I ran from disk (C:/Pharo) worked well. After I opened it from another disk folder (C:/AnyFolder/Pharo) and also worked. But I went back to put it in user folder and didnt works (C:/Users/MyUser/Documents). So the problem is the name of the folder "MyUser" (userfolder). The userfolder in my PC has a tilde (ascento is Spanish) because it is a Spanish name. I affirm that this is the problem because I created a folder with accent on the disk (C:/fólder/Pharo) and did not work.
And the problem has no solution but to change the name of the user folder. And is a little hard work.
Thank you.
