PC SDK 2021.3 FileSystem.GetDirectory

Moin! (Means 'hello!' in northern germany)

I can't figure out, what went wrong, with the use of Filesystem.GetDirectory as you can see in attached picture.

Hello there,

Unfortunately I don't have access to a RC right now, but I've looked into this a bit from the VC-side I was able to get the folder TestFolder from the controllers Home-directory to a directory on my PC with the following syntax:

Controller.FileSystem.GetDirectory("Backup", "C:\\Users\\XYZ\\Downloads\\TestFolder", true);

This command will take the folder contents from "HOME/Backup" on the controller and place it into "C:\\Users\\XYZ\\Downloads\\TestFolder"

The path2 exception happens if I change "Backup" to "ctrl:Backup"

Can you please show me the reference that tells you to add the "ctrl:" to your remoteDirectory?

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException
  HResult=0x80070003

  Message=ctrl:/hd0a/1.020IR1/HOME/hd0a/BACKUP/1.020IR1_20210812_1033

As you can see in above message, there is "ctrl:" needed in the command.

Ok, that was a mistake.

But now it is working

Thanks for your help!

[CODE]

                            controller.Backup("(BACKUP)$/" + backupDir);

                            do
                            {
                                this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
                                System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(200);
                                this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
                            } while (controller.BackupInProgress);

                            controller.FileSystem.RemoteDirectory = "/hd0a";

                            string recDir = "D:\\Backup\\" + backupDir;
                            string sendDir = "/BACKUP/" + backupDir;

                            controller.FileSystem.GetDirectory(sendDir, recDir);
