Command line won’t accept drives with a space in the drive name. Just fyi #275

I had same problem. Found the problem! If your temp drive or destination drive label name has a space you get that error. Rename drives to one word no spaces and boom!

Talking about that pool code not 96 hex issue. Space in drive name confuses the command run on start up

Use quotes: -t "/some/drive name/".

or don't use spaces... Spaces don't go in file-/pathnames

this is not the app.. generally no linux Cli tool will accept spaces, When linux calls an app the command line is already parsed by the linux os. (spaces are separaters) the app gets the leftovers.

Generally it is very bad practice to have spaces & amulets in file & directly names on ANY OS due to multi-byte character sets. ESP..... when dealing with "del" & "rm" on linux......

(anyone who whines.. well i can use it on windows.. better go check out the windows developer website, or better still the German amulet fiasco, where MS completely destroyed the distinction between 3 separate characters...)
