Trying to investigate on this issue. So far I can tell:
I do not use WinRAR, but I unzipped MH1.1.1 with another tool and these settings: "No Pathnames" and "Auto rename". When starting MakeHuman I get the error message from the operating system: "Failed to execute script pyi_rth__tkinter". User folders were not created.
Then, same test with MakeHuman 1.1.0: The application crashes shortly after start up. No system error messages occurred, but at least user folders with log files were created.
Result: When MakeHuman is unzipped with faulty options it crashes either in a very early stage, even before it creates the user folders, which is almost one of MakeHuman's first actions in the start-up process, or it crashes in a later stage, but then one can find some log files.
Looking at the user's bug reports the strange thing is, that MakeHuman does not create any user folders or log files as one of the first steps in the start-up process, but the crash itself occurs when it tries to load plugins, which happens in a very late stage. And the error message is from the system.
