Folder with special characters: UnicodeEncodeError

[aapo]

Backup has folder with non-latin alphabet, eg Documents/فوتبال Version: 3fd0dfa0d67e4eddb1e882fcff9f980f4903a107

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 871, in openBackupGUI
    self.openBackup(newBackupPath)
  File "main.py", line 890, in openBackup
    self.readBackupArchive()
  File "main.py", line 1651, in readBackupArchive
    path = str(path_u[0])
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 10-21: ordinal not in range(128)

Seems this can be handled with the same way as in row 1667.

And then question is will row 1637 (domain_name = str(domain_name_u[0])) break then? Or some other str()?

hi!

wow, thanks for your bug reports, they are really interesting! sadly it's been a while since I worked on iPBA2, and now the project is a little on hold.. I've been working on other projects, and honestly I hardly remember the details. I'll ask you: could you try all your suggested edits and collect them in a github pull request? That would be great! Of course, feel free to write for any question should arise.

Thanks!

Mario
