1. Trying to install a plugin through the QGIS interface
2. The plugin is downloaded but an error message appears at the validation stage: "python said: ascii" https://1drv.ms/u/s!Alk-hpLFKlPIgecgn1s7sEqgxPj_BA Windows 7 32 bit, QGIS 2.18.17

Thanks for the report. The error message is a bit unclear, but I'll check that out soon to see if it can be reproduced and fixed. Stay tuned.

A temporary solution to the problem is: In file "C:/Users/Username/.qgis2/python/plugins\AutoFields\AutoFields.py" replace this line "userPluginPath = os.path.join( os.path.dirname( str( QgsApplication.qgisUserDbFilePath() ) ), "python/plugins/AutoFields" )" with userPluginPath = "C:/Users/Администратор/.qgis2/python/plugins/AutoFields" where is "Администратор" - Username
