Possible issue with password use when mapping drive if password contains a quote (')?

This is a strange one, and I am not sure where the issue lies. I am using a Map Network Drive action, and for the password I am using a variable - %ctPassDecrypted%

The variable (correctly) contains a quote mark at the end of it, in addition to other special characters (no percent signs, though). Is there an issue when that happens in a variable, somehow? I have verified that the password is correct by manually mapping the drive using it, and previous to a recent password change (which was required), the action worked fine using the variable declaration in the password field.

Currently using 5.5.1740, though I will soon install 1746, if that would make a difference.

Hi Jonathan

Quote characters cause issues for command line applications (the action calls net use) - I checked the code and it was only putting double quotes around the password if there were spaces. I have changed it to always double quote - that seems to work ok here.

This build has the change.

Thank you for the quick turnaround! Is there an accompanying ATCMD build as well? Or is that not needed for this?

Also, I am getting a notice that I cannot install this build because our Software Assurance has lapsed, but I cannot find any evidence of that. Could you please look into that?

Note: When I try installing the 1746 build, I do not get the note about the Software Assurance, so I have no idea what is going on.

The software assurance on most of your licenses expired on 24 Apr 2026.

OK…I have reached out to the point person for our licenses…they are apparently working on the renewal. In the meantime, I have changed the relevant password and am hoping that the version I have installed will work :slight_smile:
