I just figured out that problem is solved by moving the NAND Root to a folder path that has no accents.

Can you please specify which characters cause the problem? And have you tested this on the latest dev version? This may have already been solved.

Get the latest dev version from https://dolphin-emu.org/download/. 4.0-2191 as of this writing. Make sure you don't go to that OTHER place again.
