First of all, thank you for development of Cobian Reflector application. It is an excellent and reliable tool that works very well!
I have one suggestion for your consideration. If I add a manual backup destination that uses a "parameter," such as:
(note, leading space before % character)
This user mistake causes backup to fail as destination path starts with whitespace.
In my case I copied and pasted from the parameter help and by accident I included the space before the % character, and this caused the backup to fail. It is good that the log file puts " characters around the entire path so that I was able to see my mistake.
My suggestion is to trim leading spaces (and also possibly trailing spaces) when saving the destination line of text in the GUI.
Thank you!
