Hi,

I am using Vista Business SP1 and I recently upgraded my engine to 0.95.3 from 0.94. I noticed that the UNC ("\\?\C:\<folder>\") no longer works after upgrading to 0.95.3

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Ray

why do you need this syntax, using c:\<folder> gives you the same result. Windows explorer does not work with it either.

we just found that the globbing code of ms crt possibly screws unc paths so it may be related to this.I've disabled it for upcoming 0.96 so UNC paths will work again
