Installer behaviour on update
Hi, I have a small suggestion on the installer behaviour when updating Reflector: it would be nice if the installer would detect the installation mode (service/application) and keep it as is. I understand that the default install mode is Application because... reasons, a very effective anti-stupid p...

Re: Wrong name in files/directory list
I can confirm that behavior: when running as application all tasks containing .git/config files finish successfully, all files are archived as expected.
Running as service triggers the .git/config/ error (as well as that Thunderbird profile error where all this has started).

Re: Wrong name in files/directory list
It get even more weird: first I have suspected that it has something to do with the file extension or lack there of but that proved to be a dead end.

Re: Wrong name in files/directory list
All tested directories are on an NTFS filesystem. I have tested again with the same files in a clean Windows 10 VM, also NTFS, and I've got the same behavior as before - the errors are absolutely identical on .git as well as on the Thunderbird profile files. I will further test on FAT32 and exFAT wh...
