[7.12.1, 7.13.0] FileNotFoundError in check_free_space: [WinError 3] System cannot find the specified path: '.'

[kozlovsky]

A pretty frequent error:

  File "run_tribler.py", line 100, in <module>
  File "tribler\gui\start_gui.py", line 48, in run_gui
  File "tribler\core\check_os.py", line 51, in check_free_space
  File "__init__.py", line 1995, in disk_usage
  File "psutil\_pswindows.py", line 265, in disk_usage
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 3] System cannot find the specified path: '.'  

Here:

def check_free_space():
    logger.info('Check free space')
    try:
        free_space = psutil.disk_usage(".").free / (1024 * 1024.0)

Should we specify some absolute path here?

Or at least we can catch and ignore the error, and continue without checking
