Empty library - if path to zotero directory contain special characters (Windows7)
My friend copied Zotero data to new directory. Path of this new directory contained two special characters (quotes): „ and “. In Zotero preferences changed path to Zotero data accordingly.
After Zotero restart, Zotero don't complain, but library is empty.
Problem temporary fixed by renaming folder by removing „ and “ characters, and by changing path to Zotero data accordingly. But Zotero should work even if special characters do exist in path name!
