On one machine I can run (directory-files "f:/cached-files/" nil nil t)) and it works. I have another machine using an identical setup (file structure, programs &= versions). If I copy the directory to dropbox. I can run directory-files on both machi= nes and it works. If I move the directory to the main hard drive but not the c: partition (i.= e. f:/) it returns "" instead of directory with circumflex. If I then copy the directory to the c: drive it works. If I cut the circumflex character and paste it into emacs and then back int= o the folder name the code will work on drive f: Pasting the circumflex character into emacs gave different results for the = copy on original machine (=E2=80=93) and new machine (=E2\200\223). =80=93
