Copy file to unc path

I've tried a bunch of things, but haven't had any luck yet. Could you please suggest a way to resolve this issue. Thanks very much to AdamL and dread1 for their help.

I used both suggestions. For reference, this is what the working code now looks like. Ampersand or spaces in path are not the problem. You're trying to use Invoke-Expression supplying path as parameter, which is not a valid command. Just change double quotation marks to single just in case. Also I suggest you create path using Join-Path instead of contatenating the strings.

Who maps the network drive? And are you using the mapped name, instead of the underlying UNC native path? Because it sounds like the mapped drive is setup in your login script, which doesn't run if you're not logged in.

So, in a scheduled task, you do have the correct credentials for the UNC path, but no mapped drive letter. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.
