Is There any way to fix this?

Log a bug.
http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=25347 [sidefx.com]

this problem - UnicodeDecodeError: ‘ascii’ codec can't decode byte 0xe0 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

fix bug - edit file ….Houdini 13.0.222\python27\lib\mimetypes.py and

try:
ctype = ctype.encode(default_encoding) # omit in 3.x!
except UnicodeEncodeError:
pass

These lines in mimetypes should simply be removed.

Thanks.
This Helps.

Did you log a bug?

RomanM, thank you
