Hey @James90

Try to writeline your path first for debug purpose then see if some character is coming in file path which is not supported by windows or else.

Hi @aksh1yadav
My NewPath gives “C:\ESD” and I want this path, but I am getting illegal path error?

@James90,

Can you remove back slash in your directory.getfiles and give a try and what NewPath contains, remove Newpath hardcode and see if you are getting the error, if its working then there are extra spaces or special characters in NewPath variable
