So, this is a story of an experience a friend of mine had with Android Studio.

As part of our semester, we are required to make an application through Android Studio, and had no previous experience with it. We started to download and install it all which were a nightmare on its own to make it work.

While i got it to work in the end, she encounterred a big issue. Her pc was named after her name, which contained letters android studio did not understand (æ,ø,å) and made it absolutely useless.

After installing and uninstalling multiple times, she ended up making and entire new user called "F#ck Android Studio" just to make it work.

No idea if there was an easier way, but damn its been hell for her

    I got the same issue with GTA V a few years back,since that my name contained é. It was a hell and after that I don't use any special characters in computer names or something similar again. Pain in the fucking ass and mostly the errors doesn't tell you that it's the reason.

    never install anything in default locations with IDEs.
    Install the android sdk in a writable directory, and never in the Progam files, and you will be much better off.
    I would also suggest opening a user with a normal name for all programing assigments.
