15462	VBoxManage.exe guestcontrol: cannot perform any file system operation (like mkdir, copyto)	StefanRoe		"I cannot perform any file system operation with my vm running win10/64 as guest.

==== How to Reproduce ====


{{{
VBoxManage.exe guestcontrol Win10forDCTest1 copyto --recursive --verbose --username test --password test --target-directory ""C:/Users/test/test/"" ""a.txt""
}}}


produces:

Creating guest session as user 'test'...[[BR]]
Waiting for guest session to start...[[BR]]
Successfully started guest session (ID 1)[[BR]]
Copying from host to guest ...[[BR]]
VBoxManage.exe: error: Querying directory existence ""C:/Users/test/test/"" failed: VERR_NOT_FOUND.[[BR]]
Closing guest session ...[[BR]]

The same happens with mkdir and others.

The directory ""C:/Users/test/test/"" exists on the guest system, user and pw do so, too. User ""test"" has admin privileges, User access control is set to the lowest level.
