Having a path prefixed with '/' is invalid on Window. There was an attempt to
fix this issue with
https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/-/commit/c195e0cda57949891207f5c7f2c817d2b6fbe298,
but it does not seem to cover this case.

also including a space in the path may be an issue  causes by the currently
uses command line refered to in comment 4:

   copy /b /y <source> + nul <destination> 

where it should be 

    copy /b /y "<source>" + nul "<destination>"

to be able to deal with spaces in path.

This problem has already been fixed in the source code
(https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/commit/774fef67ff2683e12f7e7982a5aec094fdfad9b6
and
https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/commit/e08f8beae9eca9beea4562ab69e645e0239ba9dd)
and will be available with the next versions or immediately by using a kmymoney
snapshot (see https://kmymoney.org/download.html).
