Dear Blazej,

Thank you for your reply. Installing ICE under a simple C:\ice directory 
did the trick, and I can now set the omero settings. I think it would be 
worth adding this to the Windows installation instructions (i.e. avoid 
installations in directories which have special characters, like spaces).

I am also able to run the command 'bin\omero admin diagnostics', here is 
the output:

================================================================================

I will continue with the installation, hopefully having the server up 
and running within the next days.

I would like to thank you for taking the time to reply!

Best regards,
Angelos
