Katalon Studio cant load or create Projects, if the path to Katalon Studio has a ü (and likely other special chars too)

The problem i mostly had, was that the Error Log pointed me in the wrong direction. I tried to troubleshoot the project and the folder / path it was in. However the problem was in the path the Studio
was in, since that had a “ü” in it, which made the error appear.
It also generated the globalVariable file, even though the Error said it couldn’t. Quick Fix would probaply be to adjust the error message, though i think it would be benefical to have Katalon Studio beeing able to run from any OS supported path.

Please let us know what you are using Katalon Studio for?

  1. I have currently applied Katalon Studio in my project

How would your work be affected if this issue has not been resolved?

  1. It doesn’t affect much, but I believe Katalon team should have this ticket resolved
    (though keep in mind it took me a few hours to troubleshoot this, which made me completly unable to work in the meantime)
