Cannot get into game lobbies or watch replays

It happens on both faf clients. This error happened today few hours ago. (Feels like it's something about "/" and "\", how do I get "\" back then?)
Replay log is the same as game log so I won't add it here.
I probably can fix this by reinstalling the game, but I would prefer a simplier solution

Spoiler: show

As far as i can see, there are some problems with your windows user name.

The original client:

Code: Select all: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 9-16: ordinal not in range(128) PERSONAL_DIR initial: C:/Users/юōςƐ/Documents

The ASCII code for "юōςƐ" can't be read.

Downlords client:

Code: Select all: Not a folder: C:\Users\ÐÎÄÍÎÂÅÐ\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Maps\tedxxstv0003.zip

The ASCII code is now read as "ÐÎÄÍÎÂÅÐ".

So basically the client can't find these directories:

Code: Select all: C:\Users\юōςƐ\Documents C:\Users\ÐÎÄÍÎÂÅÐ\Documents

Maybe you should fix this first. (your windows name)
