I have the this problem, too. And I still cannot solve it.

I have solved this problem. My device is a mac. There will be a file called '.DS_Store' in each folder, which results in the mistake.

I am running the same code on python 2.7, Windows 10
I have no hidden files and all the encoding is in UTF-8
Still getting this error
