Hello,
I have recently updated FreeFileSync from 14.0 to 14.3 and tried to "Mirror" between my PC -> SSD by copying an existing Configuration that was "Two way" and changing it to "Mirror" and running it.
However, immediately after trying to "Compare", I get this weird error saying "Cannot find the following folders" followed by some nonsensical path, that I haven't manually put anywhere that seems to consist of the path where FreeFileSync is installed and one of the right entires (that I expect to be created on the SSD) slapped at the end, which obviously cant and does not exist...
All paths C: D: and E (the external SSD) do exist and can be accessed.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
FreeFileSync is generating weird paths that do not exist...

Och whoopsy daisy...
I have just realized it, when I was rewriting the paths at E: I have misstyped E:\ as E\: and was subsequently too focused on debugging the weird path the program produced. So the "ERROR_INVALID_NAME ... volume label syntax is incorrect" was actually right, my bad... But this behavior of slapping those to paths together is a bit strange.
