Folders ending with a dot "." give error
It just so happens that they are also longpath. But I think it's on all folders that end with a dot "."
Fix Error Please
Thanks

Directories ending with a "." are invalid for most file systems, so this likely isn't an error and is consistent with native functionality

Confirmed.
Even if you manually add the . to the directory name, still not recognized.
Even a UNC path, \\?\C:\TMP\BRU\dir_dot., which seems like it would work, then fails when it attempts to write the sync.ffs_lock file.
Now you could thwart that too, but then I'd suspect when it gets to the actual copy part, it would fail again?
