And it works if you follow exactly the same steps but for a folder on
the local hard disk?

Mnemogogo calls a Qt library function
(QFileDialog.getExistingDirectory with QFileDialog.ShowDirsOnly) to
select the synchronization path. I can't understand why it should fail
with that error message.

Have you tried mounting the USB drive (i.e., giving it a drive
letter), and then trying to select the folder through the mounted
drive?

It would also be possible to enter a path directly, but this requires
some familiarity with paths on Windows.

Apparently there is a command-line tool that can give the (drive-less)
path to a volume:
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/mountvol.mspx?mfr=true

But I would try mounting the drive first, and then, if that works,
looking for a way of avoiding the mounting step.

Tim.
