What is the problem you are having with rclone?
When I defined a new remote for Google Drive and gave it a name as "googleDriveVivjain604Shared", when I mount this remote drive using 'rclone mount', then in my windows system the drive name is assigned as 'googleDriveVivjain604Shared{ysOI'. (The last five character are automatically picked up, either by windows or rclone).
This new drive name cannot be used in rclone CLI commands since '{' character is now allowed in the name of remote in rclone commands.
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
rclone v1.67.0
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.22631.3593 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.22.4
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: cmount
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Google Drive
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
