Path with space #23

Open berncon opened 5 years ago

berncon commented 5 years ago

1) Encountered Exit code 2: Path with space, i.e. C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Outlook Files 2) Encountered Exit code 3 By default, if /verbosity= level not specified 3) Bummer! Does not support UNC (network storage path)

  1. If you use a path with spaces, just enclose in quotes: "C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Outlook Files"
  2. I have used network storage paths for the destination without troubles.

If it is helpful as a reference, I'm using shadowspawn in the following app: https://github.com/dbolton/SolidBackup

Thank you for your response. Yes, Robocopy do support path enclosed within quotes. However, ShadowSpawn does not. Ended up using RoboMirror. Will 'test-drive' SolidBackup.

I found that shadowspawn can not work when the path contain chinese words. i pushed a commit to my fork,to fix this problem. if the path contain spaces ,just enclose the path in quotes.
