Error details: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect
Filename on disk: .minecraft
Path: C:\Users\ccReynolds\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft
Exists: directory
If I try to change it from the default directory in the launcher, it won't accept anything on the \users folder. I think it has to do with the fact that my c:\users folder is a mounted partition at that location. Has anyone else had a similar issue?
Just to clarify the issue is with the 2.0.806 launcher. The old one worked just fine.
They use the term mount. You can make a file system similar to Linux where everything is under the c:. It is an option when you partition your NTFS partition. In my case I have a small SSD for my C: drive and a larger one for storage. Since I have several people that play it in my household on different accounts, I did it to keep the SSD from filling up.
I get the following error on one of my machines:

Any folder outside of c:\users works. I didn't confirm on every folder of course, but I could point to folders on C: as well as my m: drive.
Hmm, I would report it just in case in bugs.mojang.com
