spaces in filenames or directories, not backing up

Hi,

It appears that all files or subdirectories that have spaces in the names, are not backing up.
Is there a configuration option in Cobian to allow this?
I have used Cobian a few years ago, and don't remember any such issues.
I am using Windows 10 and Cobian Backup 11 (Gravity)

ERR 2020-12-29 11:07 Couldn't copy the file "C:\Mike\MorackGolf\MSGC\Member Details\Birthdays of Members.xls": The system cannot find the path specified

Thanks, Mike.

falsely reported issue, I tried a few tests with just a few files, some with spaces in directory structure, some without and all good.
then I reran my original backup task and that was fine too.
if at first you don't succeed try, try, try again. :)

Interesting to know why it failed on the first try.
