ERROR(ORCAP-32007): Netrev failed -- only when design is on Google File Stream drive

Anyone else run into this and have a solution?

I have an orcad sch on a google filestream drive, and trying to create netlist and update board file:

(note the output directory also on google filestream)

I get:

Digging in the logfile, there are two places where files fail to write:

Performing a partial design check before saving.
Failed to open file 'G:/MY DRIVE/10-REV001/allegro/#Taaaaac30420.tmp'.

netrev run on May 17 10:34:12 2019
DESIGN NAME : 'REV001'
PACKAGING ON Feb 15 2016 19:53:59


2 errors detected
No oversight detected
No warning detected

cpu time 0:32:06
elapsed time 0:00:19

File save problem: The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open.

--- and then later ----

------ Oversights/Warnings/Errors ------


#1 ERROR(SPMHNI-235): Error detected saving design.

ERROR(SPMHNI-234): Cannot write drawing, 'G:/MY DRIVE/10-REV001/allegro/REV001.brd' out to the directory: 'Error while saving the drawing.'.

#2 Run stopped because errors were detected

When I copy the whole thing to a directory in my 'Documents' directory (on C: as usual) then the whole thing works with no errors.

So my two theories are that 

1) non-NTFS file system somehow screws it up

2) non C: directory somehow screws it up

3) what's really going on (of which I have no idea!)

The right answer is probably 3 ;)

    You don't mention anything about which version of the tools you are using but, I would say, the first thing to do is change the mapping point for the drive to remove the space from the folder name, as in, G:\My Drive isn't going to work but G:\My_Drive (for example) likely would. This has certainly been an issue in older versions of the tools. I don't think that 1) and 2) are likely to be factors if Windows can read / write the target location for the files.

    I agree with oldmouldy: space in folder or file names have to be avoided.

    Such as @ , é, &, µ and so on...

    Sorry for not mentioning, version 16.6.  And, I have shortened the names to protect my client, but there were spaces in the file names in both the drive stream and non-drive stream version.  So that's not it, I thought the same thing at first.  Also, windows 10, totally updated, english version, no language packs.  No strange characters in the path names.   I should also mention, for those who don't know, that when you copy a file from NTFS to DriveStream you'll often (and in the case of the .brd file) get a warning that 'properties of the file won't be copied'.  Could be part of the issue?
