Operation System: Windows 10. Python Version: 3.5 The Error is as follow:

I have the same problem. My system is running on Windows 10 (Korean Ver.) with Python 3.5.2 (64 bit) . Should we modify the code in init.py to value.decode('utf-8')?

Tested, reasonable code commits are always welcome :) . Though I must say I have used existing code with Windows 10 without such an issue, so it should at least be investigated. Most likely it is non-English Windows or some changes brought in by some later Windows update (in which case it could be more than this change required).
