(I used Explorer to copy a file to D:\ without any problems)

Maybe I keep switching between Linux, OSX and Windows too much ?

I just tried D:myapp.apk and it works a charm

Can someone confirm is D:\filename invalid?

I just checked here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... s.85).aspx

C:\ and D:\ refer to Volumes, so d:\myapp.apk should be valid.....

and NOTE ""C:tmp.txt" refers to a file named "tmp.txt" in the current directory on drive C."

So it has to be D:\myapp.apk

Can someone try to recreate my problem using Create App with Output filename set to D:\myapp.apk (example to a flashdrive) ?

Confirmed. Does it on active volume(C:) here Windows 10 x64 SB 2.0. Ran as Admin to make sure it wasn't some ACL issue.

C:\app.apk

and

..\..\..\app.apk

Sincere thanks for your support (and others), but I had thought of Security and checked ACLs and Admin etc. It made no difference for me

But at least you confirm its not an SB issue, it must be something in my environment, and I can workaround by manually moving my Apps for now, so lets consider this a User Problem at this point.

It does raise another SB issue, and that is gaining SB specific diagnostic information is difficult, an SB diag option that lists the Java and other external calls may be very useful.

No it's an SB issue I can reproduce the problem as described.

Oh! I totally misunderstood, thanks for double-confirming
