Patcher throws an error; claims Split-Path "is null"

Attempting to run the batch version results in the following error when attempting to apply the patch:

Split-Path : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'LiteralPath' because it is
null.

Hi, how far does the script get through the patching process before the error occurs?

Does it get as far as printing The following installations of Recettear were detected.? Or, as far as Recettear is being patched as follows:? Or, further than those two messages?

It gets to "will be patched as follows", lists the patches to be applied, then shows the error with no further lines printed.

Okay, when the The following installations of Recettear were detected. message is displayed, which installations are available for selection? And, which installation are you selecting? If there are multiple installations, does the error occur for all the installations, or only some of them?

Oddly enough, I tried it again and it worked this time - the issue seemed to stem from the fact that I was running it from the game's directory directly. When I do that it gives me:

[R] Script-root: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Recettear\recettear.exe [C] Current-directory: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Recettear\recettear.exe [] :[D] A different installation:
