### Description

Bisq simply doesn't open on windows. You click the icon, nothing happens.

This is an issue to help others solve the problem as we had users who found how to fix it and we probably should use this as the starting point for a bug fix

#### Version

all (known the start on 1.7)

### Steps to reproduce

Have Special chara

1. Install bisq
2. Have special characters in your username, and thus the bisq path on Windows
3. try to open Bisq
4. sit and stare and the empty screen. No error messages nothing happens

### Expected behaviour

Bisq opens and you are able to use it

### Actual behaviour

Nothing happens


#### Device or machine

Windows 7 and 10

## Solution
Change the installation directory to **NOT** include any special characters anywhere in its path.
