from a user by email:

I am using docear on a Windows 7 System. Connected to a network system, so usernames are fixed. I had a previous version running fine. Yesterday I installed the latest update. Starting docear the start window was shown, but nothing more. So there was no error message at all.

I have included the following to docear.bat, as recommended from help http://www.docear.org/faqs/docear-wont-start-what-can-i-do/: “-Dorg.freeplane.userfpdir=C:\Users\länder.docear” But still no luck. So I checked a bit in the log and setting files where I found ä = u00E4 so I changed the command as follows: “-Dorg.freeplane.userfpdir=C:\Users\lu00E4nder.docear”

And luckily docear worked again.

I don't know if this problems had already occured in previous versions. Since it was my first update on this system.

I had problems using non-ascii characters, too. I created a project called „Mobilität“ but when I re-opened it, docear told me there where no mindmaps to load and created empty default mindmaps (trash,l&a,temp). I found that docear created a completly new project named „Mobilit?t“. Luckily the original project was untouched so I could use the previous work in a new project („Mobilitaet“). Logs didn't show anything suspicious.
