I was just fixing issues with my own application and unicode paths, so I made a Windows user called ěščřžýáíéťĺň to test it.
Total commander should save the config to C:\Users\ěščřžýáíéťĺň\AppData... but it saves it to C:\Users\ešcržýáíétln... (The exact same behavior when I was not handling these paths properly in my program).
When the UAC is off, it just saves the file into wrong location, but when the UAC is on, it crashes as it has no rights to write to the other directory.
P.S. I can give you any insights in to the problematic as I spent last few days fiddling with windows unicode paths traps.
Improper handling of total commander config on unicode path.

Total Commander does not support Unicode paths for its installation directory, sorry.
