Using filemask with keepuptodate
Hello all,
I'm working on a script to keep the Documents directory on my server synchronized with the Documents directory on my computer. My goal is to have a script that launches when Windows starts up and runs the keepuptodate command. I want to exclude certain directories inside of Documents from the upload, so I used the filemask command. Here is the script I wrote:
However, running this script returns:
At first I thought I had some sort of syntax error, but I found that I can run each command individually in the command prompt of WinSCP and it functions (e.g. I run "open sftp..." etc. and then "keepuptodate...")
So, does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this problem and how to prevent it?
I'm using WinSCP Version 5.11.3 with Microsoft Windows 10.
Thanks!

The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
