For those interested.

Created the issues 21686, 21693, 21695, 21696.

And more to come...

Thanks for those.�� I don't much time right to devote, but managed to knock one off.

And I learn't something new.�� I'd not known there was a setting for screen background.

The other ones seem related to a problem dealing with user home folders containing non-ascii characters.

Currently this seems only to affect a small number of people, but is a show stopper for them,

and the numbers will grow with our hoped for growing popularity.

As a work around, in the PharoLauncher settings can you set the directories like��

C:\PharoLauncher\images

C:\PharoLaucnher\vms

and report if that helps.��

Note, I bumped into an issue changing that setting myself recently where it tries to migrate��

the existing images from the old to the new folder, causing a catch-22 when your trying

to do that to work around other problems.�� To work around that, I had to scroll��

down the debug stack to find where the migration was iterating through the image folders,

and short circuit that with "Return entered value" from the context menu.�� Any value

will do when the return value is not used.�� good luck.

@PharoLauncher maintainers, can the change in this setting be made to succeed even if the migration fails.

(I need to run right now)
