SyncthingCustomPath Path Not Found in Portable Version ? #808

I've been playing around with the portable version. Essentially I want to specify custom locations for both Syncthing, and the Syncthing DB - SyncthingCustomPath and SyncthingCustomHomePath respectively.

SyncthingCustomHomePath seems to work just fine in the default, but when I try to change SyncthingCustomPath, SyncTrayzor keeps crashing on startup - #12128 [Error] SyncTrayzor.Bootstrapper: An unhandled exception occurred System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException The system cannot find the path specified.

I've tried both single slash and double slash (thinking maybe it is an escape issue), but that did not make a difference. SyncthingCustomHomePath specifically requires double-slash to work...

To re-create, just create a blank empty folder .. K:\syncthing\config and put that into the config.xml in <portable>\data .. I've tried "pre-copying" syncthing.exe into the custom folder path, but that does not seem to work either, strangely saying that syncthing is not found.

SyncTrayzor - double-slash.log
SyncTrayzor - single-slash.log
SyncTrayzor - pre-copied.log
config.xml.txt

In the end, I do not think I will use this deployment strategy, but for my own understanding, am I missing something somewhere?
