Your diagnosis is correct on my system.
In v5 when I File/backup the KMymoney programme generates a file directory and
after I choose the location of a folder to back up it to, KmyMoney records this
as follows in the dialog box: -
/E:/Users/Rxxxxxxxxxx/...../KMyMoney/5.0 tests/Test backups

You will see at the beginning there is '/', which prevents the backup file from
being saved.
If I remove the '/' from the beginning of the absolute address the backup file
is stored successfully.

I tested the command prompt
cmd.exe /c copy /b /y E:\Users\Rxxxx\Documents\....\Rxxxx.kmy + nul E:\test.kmy
This sucessfully copied the KMymoney file to E:\test.kmy regardless of whether
or not I had KMymoney programme running.

To clarify I'm using Windows 10 Pro 1909 installed 22/06/2019 OS build
18363.720

Based on the success of these tests I will revert back to KMymoney v5 and just
remove the '/' before the backup folder location, until a fix comes along.

Thank you.
