UnicodeDecodeError: ASCII Codec Can’t Decode

Unicode is now supported by QuantumATK and ATKPython, but errors can appear with older versions. If you get an error message similar to:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “.\zipdir\NL\GUI\Main\Main.py”, line 114, in main
File “.\zipdir\NL\GUI\MainWindow\MainStack.py”, line 21, in init
File “.\zipdir\NL\GUI\MainWindow\MainStack.py”, line 114, in readSettings
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\x86' in position 14: ordinal not in range(128)

you will have to ensure that your username, the project folder, and the installation folder do not contain any non-ascii character.
