Your project path contains non-ASCII characters android studio

Question

I was installing android studio, but I have this problem when the program is starting:

Error:(1, 0) Your project path contains non-ASCII characters. T

Answer 1

I created a symbol link like described by Clézio before. However, I had to specify a suitable encoding (e.g chcp 65001) in command line before.

chcp 65001
mklink /D "C:\android-sdk" "C:\Users\René\AppData\Local\Android\sdk"

If you have your SDK installed under Path C:\Users[USER]\AppData... you may have to run command line with administrativ priviledges.

Answer 2

Your project path contains Chinese characters,

em: F:\资料\Yourproject

Please rename the path English characters:

em: F:\Data\Yourproject

Answer 3

What I actually did was redirect (I don't actually know the term) the path to my other user (my path was C:\Users\Keith Peñas\ etc.) then, I thought that I had this Spanish letter on, so I redirected the path to my other user, in this case it was (C:\Users\Keith). Then I had another problem: it was somewhat like "Your path cannot be with the rooted path". So I made a folder with the name of my app and then it worked!

Another problem I encountered was: "your path contains white space etc." and it was from my other disk.

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

The best solution to your problem is to move your project folder to other directory with no non-ASCII characters and blank spaces.

For example С:\Android\PROJECT-FOLDER.

You can create the directory in C:\ using the name that you want.

Answer 5

This error occur because of path of project. Change your project path wiht way which dont contain nonAscii character.

Answer 6

I solved this issue by adding this line

android.overridePathCheck=true

to

gradle.properties

As this message said

This warning can be disabled by using 
the command line flag -Dcom.android.build.gradle.overridePathCheck=true,
 or adding the line 
'com.android.build.gradle.overridePathCheck=true'
 to gradle.properties file in the project directory.
