server problem with certain windows usernames

Enigma-TV gets installed into the C:\users\my_user folder
If your user name contain non-internet valid characters, like norwegian æ, ø, å you will be unable to log in via the client. The android client will simply refuse to connect, but if you try to log in via the webinterface you will get an error message that c:\users\my_user\enigma-tv/index.php is not found. You will then discover that the writter username here is a bit different from the actual one.
I had to rename my user name and folder name, and some regedit settings before I could get Enigma-TV to work on my win8 pc because of this.
I think this could be solved by letting the user choose the path for installing Enigma-TV. Or change the default install path to something other than the user folders.
