Could you please confirm or deny that this is breaking the deployment of custom agent plugins in Windows with “Deploy custom files with agent” as discoverd here "Deploy custom files with agent" auf Windows broken seit 2.0.0p18.cee

Hi! We’re inspecting this right now. As soon as we know the answer, I will let you know at this thread.

Yes, this is indeed a regression that got introduced with Werk #13131 :frowning:

We will fix this with the next patch release!
