if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(theEvent.Parameter2))
process.StartInfo.Arguments = theEvent.Parameter2; <-- the whole quoted set of parameteres assigned here

What do those two lines look like in Cobian Backup?

The "if not the string is null or empty for the event 's second parameter" may be the problem. Perhaps for some odd reason, it thinks "theEvent.Parameter2" is null or empty or maybe even it is randomly picking the wrong parameter or the wrong pre-event, perhaps one that does not exist.

Can you add a proofing statement to see what '"theEvent.Parameter2" actually is? Maybe slip it into the log or spin test version for me to test?

This should work. Tested.

C:\Rakudo\bin\raku.exe """C:\NtUtil\CobianWrapper.pl6"" ""--rotates 4"" ""--backup_path"" ""[BACKUP]\MyDocsBackup\backup1"""

MS documentation for Process.Run says: Quotes in ProcessStartInfo.Arguments must be escaped as three quotes ("""). This is because a single quote is used for passing a string containing spaces as a single argument.

Just so there is no misunderstanding, the

parameters are successfully gettin got my program. I just can not edit the even line.

C:\Rakudo\bin\raku.exe """C:\NtUtil\CobianWrapper.pl6"" ""--rotates 4"" ""--backup_path"" ""[BACKUP]\MyDocsBackup\backup1"""

No symptom change:

And with all the quotes:
k:\Windows\NtUtil\RunLineTest.bat """C:\NtUtil\CobianWrapper.pl6"" ""--rotates 4"" ""--backup_path"" ""[BACKUP]\MyDocsBackup\backup1"""
Everything gets jammed into the first parameter, which goofs up my stuff pretty badly:

"0 = <"K:\Windows\NtUtil\RunLineTest.bat">"
"1 = <"""C:\NtUtil\CobianWrapper.pl6"" ""--rotates 4"" ""--backup_path"" ""[BACKUP]\MyDocsBackup\backup1""">"
"2 = <>"
"3 = <>"
"4 = <>"
"5 = <>"
"6 = <>"
"7 = <>"
"8 = <>"
Press any key to continue . . .

Can you add a proofing statement to see what '"theEvent.Parameter2" actually is? Maybe slip it into the log or spin test version for me to test?

Hi Ushavilash,

This is what is known as an "intermittent". It is the worst, most irritating bug for a programmer to isolate and correct. That being said, Cobian is a genius programmer and he will eventually fix it. He might not have an hair left and might have picked up a few new "Colourful" words in the process, but he will eventually fix it.

CobianReflector-2.7.10.exe?

[Todd]

Still ot fixed in 2.7.20.

Man this bug is totally a nuisance!

Luis,

This is driving me nuts!

What file do I directly edit (text or hex) to get at this run line?
