Bug report

When I try to use the program I receive this following error:

Starting WSUS Offline Update download (v. 6.9) for w61 glb...
The system cannot find the path specified.

ERROR: Directory "D:\System\Users\SYDNEL~1\AppData\Local\Temp" not found.

I think the problem is about custom path I use in my system to User folders. The correct path is:

"D:\!System\Users\Sydnelson\AppData\Local\Temp"

But WSUS don't recognize the ! in the first folder name. How can I correct this?

WSUSOU is not able to work with paths which includes chars like "!".

The exclamation mark is used as a special control char in scripts. Thus you can't use it for pathnames. It's generally recomended to avoid special chars and blanks in paths and file names.
