Can't start vtune (because of my username)

Hello,

VTune is failing to start because it can't properly parse my local folder with my user name (Victor López)

C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\vtune\2025.0\bin64>
Suspicious operation prevented: unexpected symbolic link at C:\Users\VictorL├│pez\AppData\Roaming\Intel\VTune\settings\certificates\consul.key. This could indicate an attack attempt.

Is there a way to make it to use a different directory?

It looks like the unexpected character causes the issue. As I know, VTune doesn't work when the working path includes the characters,  ® and ™ .
