I recently switched to Windows 10 and therefor did a clean Windows and QGIS 2.10.1 Install. QGIS worked fine, I reinstalled all Plugins, that I used to have. No Problems.
Today I switched on the PC and wanted to open QGIS and was prompted with the following Error Messages. What bugs me is, that I had similar problems in my Windows 8 and QGIS 2.8 system.
The whole Python Plugin System seems to "crash". QGIS opens but all Plugins are disabled and I can't even access the Plugin-Module (where I can pick an install/uninstall plugins).
Could somebody help me with that please? A reinstall of QGIS 2.8 didn't help when I had a similar problem months ago.
The error messages (german installation):

I have just found out the reason of the python error message. I used an "ö" in my username in Windows which causes the trouble. I renamed my windows username and had to rename my user folder (thought we have the year 2015 and "ä,ö,ü" wouldn't cause trouble like this anymore!) but now it works again.
