After cloning the repository I exected get.exe and this is the error message.
I have no idea what to do now.
Tried administrator and compatibility mode, but the error seems to be caused by a codec exception, which is wierd

Your folder or file name has any special character somewhere?

Oh this is possible, I am from the Czech republic, so in my username there is a "ř" symbol. Since I cannot simply change my username in win10 (I think at least), is there a way to at least change install folder of esp32 files? ESP8266 installed its files somewhere else if I remember correctly.

It was fixed here: https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/pull/781/files

just need to wait @me-no-dev compile a new .exe from the .py updated file
If you have python installed, running get.py should work
