I just tried to install Paperwork and got an error.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install version 1.2.1 from the link at openpaper.work https://github.com/jflesch/paperwork/releases/download/1.2.1/paperwork_1.2.1_win64_installer.exe
  2. Change default installation directory from C:\Program Files (x86)\Paperwork to d:\Program Files (x86)\Paperwork
  3. Wait for installation to complete; select 'run now'
  4. Dialog box says 'There was a problem starting d:\Program' capture

I don't have access to my usual workstation currently. So it may be a while before I can actually look at this bug (about at least 1 month). Sorry.

Well that's weird. I reproduced the issue, but at the same time, Paperwork was still able to start ...

Definitively related to the installation path. Not a blocking bug (even if a little ugly) since Paperwork starts anyway. I've enabled the console and didn't find any trace explaining why this popup appear. This will require extra investigation later.
