I'm problematic long reasons coined on external forums. The problem was going to start with the UTF-8 character encoding, which I don't understand technically. Probably EADesktop is not opening something that is not caused by their code. I solved the problem by repeating the problem resolution (Settings-Time and language - Language and regional - Admin language settings - System locale Change user. - "Unchecked" Beta: Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language future) while it was ticked.
