Problem details: This problem started happening randomly a few days ago, every time I try to download a map I get that error. I did find a solution on an old Osu! forum post but the solution is to manually drag the file into your map folder, and that's so inconvenient to do every time I want to download a map as you could imagine. I cant find any info past that and need help, any one have any solutions?

This might be an issue with some maps that containing Unicode characters on the metadata or file names. Try opening the .osz file as standard zip file, extract it somewhere (make sure to extract it on separate folder per map), and then manually copy-paste the extracted folder to osu! Songs folder. The map should be imported normally, however due to the encoding issues with Unicode characters, you might have missing elements on the map.
