The issue is likely due to non ascii chars in your username/home path. As a quick workaround you can create a username with standard chars, log in as that username and try to run wubi. I will try to provide a patched version in the coming days

Fixed for me, with international chars in volume labels.
I tried wub-r134.exe, and nothing happened, but the log says that it found an installation and started the uninstaller, and no exceptions.
I think it would have been nice to get some visual feedback as to what's going on in such case.
