Copy-VMGuestFile cmdlet when copying many files creates as many folder as files with the same name.

Hi there,

 

Today I've updated my PowerCLI system from 4.1.1 to 5.1.0 Release 2, and I've got a problem with cmdlet Copy-VMGuestFile, the same problem that was written in this discussion: Copy-VMGuestFile creates superfluous folders

I'm invoking a command that's copying files from shared disk to an VM:

 

Copy-VMGuestFile -LocalToGuest -Source "C:\powcli41.txt" -Destination "C:\Users\unittester\Desktop\powcli41.txt" -VM VMName -GuestUser domain\username -GuestPassword password -HostUser username -HostPassword password -force 

 

It's the same line like in that discussion, for every file that is in source, it creates at destination a folder with full name of destination, and in that folder it place it copies that file, instead of copying only a file (without creating an folder).

 

Is there any progress in fixing it, any ETA ?

 

I've wanted to update to 5.1.0 because I've heard that i some cases it's much faster than 4.1.1 version.

 

Best Regards,

Maciek
