[Dr Eberhard Lisse]

Can you create a minimal working example?

The smallest document, with the least packages which gives this error?

Dear LyX users,

I am writing a LyX document. However, when trying to compile it, I
have the following error message in french:
"Le chemin d'acc=C3=A8s =C3=A0 votre document

(/Users/UPJV/Google Drive/Carrie=CC=80re/2016/Postes/UoMichigan/)

contient des caract=C3=A8res inconnus

de l'encodage en cours (i. e. =CC=80).

I do not understand very goofd because there are no such forbidden
letters in the path to my documents.

Would someone have any idea ?
Thank you very much in advance,
Regards,
Harold

Somewhat more seriously: it looks as if there may be non-ASCII 
characters in the portion of the URL between "Google Drive" and "2016". 
If so, you might want to create a shortcut to the target directory with 
some simple, strictly ASCII name. How to do this depends on your 
operating system.
