While attempting to move a distribution to another drive, the following error occurred:

PS C:\Users\tim> .\Downloads\LxRunOffline-v3.5.0-33-gbdc6d7d-msvc\LxRunOffline-v3.5.0-33-gbdc6d7d-msvc\LxRunOffline.exe m -n Ubuntu-20.04 -d E:\wsl2\
[ERROR] Couldn't create the file "\\?\E:\wsl2\temp\".
Reason: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Following the error, the destination directory contains:

PS C:\Users\tim> ls E:\wsl2


    Directory: E:\wsl2


Mode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name
----                 -------------         ------ ----

-a----          3/1/2022   5:58 PM              0 fsserver

The original distribution location seems to be intact, and shows as still being the registered location using the di option.
