When I try to run 0.11, everything works perfectly fine.

But when I try to run 0.12, I get the following error:

What can I do to fix this?

Failed to encode executable path as UTF-8.
Where is factorio installed?
Does the path have any strange characters / spaces in it?

If so, try installing into a short space-free path and see if that helps

I tried deleting it and reinstalling it on my Mac in my applications folder on different locations and users but I still get the same error.
I should also mention that 0.11.22 works perfectly fine but when I try to update to 0.12 from 0.11.22, it errors out.

Hi, this looks suspiciously like what we're reporting in the bugs here:
