It's possible that the file
http://factominer.free.fr/add-menu-facto-fr.txt that the FactoMineR
script downloads is not read using the correct encoding (it is in
CP2152), and thus contains invalid UTF-8 characters.
So indeed I would reinstall Rcmdr using
install.packages("Rcmdr")
and load Rcmdr separately using
library(Rcmdr)
If that works, the bug is in FactoMineR's nonstandard way of installing
a menu. A workaround might be to use their English install script:
source("http://factominer.free.fr/install-facto.r";)
