            Bug ID: 418685
           Summary: Trying to Backup the file you are working on.
           Product: kmymoney
           Version: 5.0.6
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: file
          Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: okanaganred at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When you click on [File] then "Backup...", in the (Mount Point:) box. There is
a "/" at the start of the path description.
example: if I want to backup to (G:/Financial_Folder/KMyMoney-BkUp) location,
By default there is a "/" character coded to appear at the start of the
location.
[/G:/Financial_Folder/KMyMoney-BkUp] it should be without the backslash "/"
character in front of the path. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have the file you are working on open.
2. Click on [File] then "Backup..."
3. Click on [Choose] button, select the location you want.
4. Click on [OK]

OBSERVED RESULT
The Error box pops up "Error copying file to device" Then when you click on the
[OK] button, the Error box closes, but you do not have a backup.

EXPECTED RESULT
When doing a "Backup" there should not be a "/" backslash in front of the
location selection. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro

KDE Frameworks 5.47.0
Qt 5.9.1 (built against 5.9.1)
The windows windowing system

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am not a programmer, but have worked a bit on databases. I think somewhere in
the code the "/" is inserted/hard coded to be placed in front of the path
selection.
Note: If you take the "/" at the front of the path location out, the backup
works fine. Unfortunately some users I think would not figure that out.
