Description:
After usual installing Lazarus can't start if username in cyrrilic (tested on Russian versions of Windows XP, 7 (x64), 8.1 (x64)), "Unable to create file: C:....\enviromentoptions.xml". Lazarus 1.4.4 have not this problem.
If used a Secondary installation of Lazarus whith latin only alphabet for installation path and settings path, then Lazarus works. If settings path contains cyrillic symbols - the error is the same.
Also if installation path contains cyrillic symbols, then start dialog can't set path to compiler: when choose a compiler, dialog can't find "fpc.cfg".
P.S.: sorry for ugly english translate.
Steps to reproduce:
Install Lazarus in Windows, usual if username contains cyrillic symbols, secondary otherwise (settings path must contains cyrillic symbols).
Try to launch.
