I think the 1st problem is a consequence of the 3rd problem and this problem is a consequence of the 2nd one but..

 

I've tried to create an empty project and import the cinemachine etc. And i have the same problem too.

 

Those errors happened to me as well. After series of testing, I found out that I saved my Unity project under the folder that contains japanese kanji character in it. Have not test it with spaces and other symbols. But be aware to avoid saving your project inside a folder named using kanjis.

 

We came across to this bug today. It's not the project name that is the problem I believe, it's the folder names above it. One of our devs had a folder structure like: C:\Users\cenk\Masaüstü\Projects\MyProject, Masaüstü means desktop in Turkish and we were getting the errors mentioned in the first post. We moved the project to C:\Projects\MyProject and errors are gone now.

 

This problem occurs if the folder path of the project contains non-English content. For example, the folder path contains Chinese words

 

@Gregoryl, I remember you mentioned to my team once, that OS folder depth could sometimes be problematic in some cases.

Maybe this is a combined issue, OS folder depth and non supported characters.

@GameFDev seems to have taken both steps here to fix that issue.

 

i am also from turkey and that was also my problem and my solution. thank you cenk!

 

Hate to necro a post, but this post saved me a lot of frustration. I had my folder called "Unity - Game Projects" took out the " - " symbol, and no errors. So, it doesn't like any kind of special characters. Spaces were okay though when I renamed my folder "Unity Projects" works like a charm now.
