You probably have a European character (ü, á or the like) in your username or the path to Armory's folder.  That is for some reason not supported.

Do you have non ASCII characters in your wallet file name and/or the directory path to where the wallet file is stored?

Ie. Japanese/Asian characters or Cyrillic or other special characters with accents like Å or ø or ü etc

Effectively, anything that isn't A-Z or a-z or 0-9

I believe what they meant was where your wallets and such are stored. I believe it's something like C:\Users\Edgar\Roaming\Armory. The thing is that something like C:\Users\Félix won't work with Armory. People are asking if that's what's happening here, i.e., the username having a "Unicode" character that isn't supported.
