Any ideas?
There's not much info available but an indication of permission issue.

Try running Armory as Administrator.
By Either:
  • A. Right-click 'ArmoryQt.exe' and select "Run as administrator". (has to be done every time you open Armory)
    or
  • B. Right-click 'ArmoryQt.exe' and select "Properties", Under 'Compatibility', find "Run this program as administrator" and save. (permanent)

If it didn't work, try to install Armory somewhere else and not in Program Files.

Sounds like an old version, try to update to 0.96.5: https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/releases

There are some weird characters in your user name most likely (or at least in the path to AppData/Roaming/Armory). You need to use custom pathing to run Armory and Core from an ascii compliant location.
