Re: [Zim-wiki] can't get windows version to start

Trying to understand what happens exactly, but seems to me this is between the gettext and locale libraries. Not something I can fix directly from zim. Patched the offending code to at least catch the error and fallback to no translation. Btw. if you want to load the Norwegian Bokmal translation

Checking a test case I realized that the path to the translation itself does not have unicode: it is just "locale/.../nb.mo" for Norwegian. So unicode character must be in the installation path of zim - can you share the installation folder ? Regards, Jaap On Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 9:54 AM Jaap

Look in the folder "%TEMP%" for a file "zim.log" and see if it says anything interesting. Next, try running this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Zim Desktop Wiki\zim.exe" --standalone --debug (Fix the path to zim.exe if it is not correct.) Whether that opens a window or not, again go look
