Please actually provide information about what you think is a bug. Describe what you are doing and what happens, if you are getting an error, make a screenshot and attach it.

I can make a wild guess that it could be the same as BUG 506896, which happens on Windows when you try to render the animation to a file or directory that contains non-English letters.

So every time I try to render the animation 
I get a Pop-up
Frames with the same naming scheme exist in the destination directory. They are going to be deleted, continue?

Directory: C:/Users/Kai/Videos
Files: frame0000.png, frame0001.png, frame0002.png, ...
I press yes
Them I get another pop up
Overwrite existing video?
A file already exists at the path where you want to render your video [C:/Users/Kai/Downloads/Nolstaga reginaled v2.jpg.mp4]... 
                                                              Are you sure you want to overwrite the existing file?
Then I press ok
I get another pop-up saying
Could not render animation:
Unknown error.
