I think the fact RS isn't available to H20 just yet means more and more people are trying Karma.

What do you mean by that? RS for h20 is already available since the beta.
Could you please elaborate on that? In the RS docs it says the latest version (3.5.20) is for Houdini 19.5.752 and there's nothing on Houdini 20. I'd really like to get it working on H20 but got no clue how to do that. Maybe you could help with that? I'd really appreciate it.

I had the same problem. It happens when you have non-latin characters in your user account name. Your account and computer name should always be in latin characters. It's important for many programs to work properly, not only houdini.

I have windows 7 so I looked up how to make changes here.

“First of all change your user account name by accessing the Control panel. Click Start Menu then Control Panel.
On the Control Panel Windows click on user account name link
Type in your new user account on the box bellow your profile picture and then click on the “Change Name” Button
The next step would be to change your folder profile. First of all you need to create a new account with administrator rights to execute the next steps. This new account is only needed to change the folder profile name. You may remove this account after you use it to change the folder profile name. To create a new account click Manage Another Account > Create a new Account
Type in the new account. Make sure you assign “Administrator” right for this new account.

Log off your computer and then log in with the newly-created account
Open Windows Explorer and then navigate to C:\users
Right click on the folder you want to rename and change it to the same name as your new user profile with which you log in to your Windows 7
At this point you have successfully renamed your Windows 7 user folder but to avoid possible error you need to perform a registry edit. Go to registry editor by typing “Registry” (without quote) in Start Menu. Navigate to the following registry value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList .
Righ click on the profile list and navigate to “Find” Menu
Type in your old user in the search box and then hit ‘Find Next”. Navigate to the “ProfileImagePath” located on the right pane of the registry editor and click twice on it
Edit the registry value to rename it to your new user profile.

Done”

Note that you have to make changes in registry, so it's not safe. But in my case it worked.
