The error of ticket #3711 still exist in 2.2.2

Post by asgard »

Installation of VirtualBox 2.2.2 failed
After I ran VirtualBox-2.2.2-46594-Win.exe, I got a "Count not create temporary directory!" error dialog box.
This is caused by my windows account name, which include the chinese characters. If the account name only with ascii chars then it worked well.
If in chinese windows os system, the account folder is like:'C:\Users\??'?so I guess the setup file will create a folder and unzip the files to this account folder when installing, but the setup program can't realize string '??' and look as an error.

Did you look and see if they closed the ticket? Not everything was resolved in this release.
