I created 2 jobs that contain a loop. Each job was supposed to loop over the file list from a folder. The steps are identical, the only difference is the folder and the number of files. One folder has 17 files, the other has 10 files. I created the job for the 17 files first and it ran successfully. Wanting to build on the success, I cloned the first job and modified all folders and variables to point to the 2nd folder with 10 files. Every single attempt to run the 2nd job has failed. I even deleted all the steps for the loop and rebuilt them. I have consistently gotten the error 'Illegal characters in path'. I've looked at almost all the solutions in the forum and none seem to work in solving the problem. I'm attaching the job and another error message that comes up.

Hi,

I know we've done some changes in our 9.2.0 beta build. Could you try and see if you can reproduce your issue in that build? You can download it here: https://www.visualcron.c....aspx?g=Posts&t=9889
