[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49718] Octave crashes on print/saveas etc when installed on a directory with parenthesis

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #49718 (project octave):

The default install directory was C:\Octave\Octave-4.2.0\, which I chose not
to use. The installer did not allow installing into "C:\Program Files
(x86)\Octave\Octave-4.2.0\" due to spaces in the directory name. However, it
did allow installing to the directory
C:\Program_Files_(x86)\Octave\Octave-4.2.0\ .

I used the default graphics toolkit, which seems to be qt.

I think a safe way would be to raise a note about possible problems during the
installation if the installation directory contains questionable characters.
