 I can't run WinGHCi after my installation. When I use command "ghci" in
 cmd, it returns:

 {{{
 GHCi, version 8.2.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 ghc.exe: internal error: mkPath failed converting char* to wchar_t*
     (GHC version 8.2.1 for x86_64_unknown_mingw32)
     Please report this as a GHC bug:
 http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

 This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
 way.
 Please contact the application's support team for more information.
 }}}

 I had tried to reinstall or download the Core(64-bit) version, but nothing
 changed. I think there's nothing wrong with my install precedure.

 Sorry for my poor English!

 BTW, my windows is under Chinese code system. I don't know whether this
 matters or not.
