Scott Pon Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I have no idea why I'm having such a hard time with this... In FM19 admin console, i'm trying to setup the schedule to do backups to a mapped drive. I mapped a drive letter "W:" to "\\server\fm_bkp\" then created a folder "backups". so in the "backup Schedules" for Backup Folder, I have tried the following: filewin:/W:/fm_bkp/backups/ filewin:/server/fm_bkp/backups/ But I keep getting "the path is not valid". If I use a local folder ("filewin:/e:/TempBkp/ ") it accepts the path. Am i not allowed to use a mapped drive? therefore I have to save locally then copy to the remote server? Or did I enter the path incorrectly with the wrong format (Windows to Apple paths always get me)? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Pon Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 I took the underscore out. I tried: filewin:/W:/ filewin:/W:/fmbkp/backups/ filewin:/server/fmbkp/backups/ and it gives me the same error. "The Path is not Valid" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Path is not Valid" Could you in powershell make something like?: New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path E:\Data\MyGames -Target "C:\users\UserName\MyGames" ....since you said?: 4 hours ago, Scott Pon said: If I use a local folder ("filewin:/e:/TempBkp/ ") it accepts the path.
