A student reports the error on versions 7.8, 7.7 and also 7.4 and says that 
he doesn't get any more debugging information.

I know only that we didn't get the report with earlier versions.

BTW, if one click on the dialog that has the error message, there should be
a "copy" option that will let you get some potentially valuable debugging
information. If it is easy to get a student who is having the problem to do
that, it may be helpful to report it back.

Thanks Robby. We'll experiment with that. 

Any  idea if it's just the current version fo DrRacket? We could have them 
try installing the previous version for the time being.

We have had one other report yes. It looks like something is going wrong
with the open file dialog. It may be possible to open files by double
clicking on them to sidestep the bug I am not sure.

Sorry about this.

[racket-users] UTF-8 encoding error when opening files in DrRacket on Windows 10

2020-09-17 Thread breanndan....@gmail.com 
I have two students who just installed DrRacket on Windows 10 and get this 
error when they try to open files:

bytes->string/locale: string is not a well-formed UTF-8 encoding 
string: #"\340lU\1"

Has anyone else encountered this?
