Describe the problem

Originally from here: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/new-ide-inst-saving-files-correctly/1122494

Save as fails when the sketch path contains

  • parentheses ()
  • brackets []
  • TODO: check braces {} (it works ✅) and chevrons <> (it works ✅)

Windows:

2023-05-04T10:08:56.640Z root ERROR Request copy failed with error: Cannot copy `c:\Users\kittaakos\Desktop\sketchbooks\test_sketchbook__1\nested(with parentheses)\sketch_3`: the file doesn't exist

macOS:

2023-05-04T10:21:50.093Z root ERROR Request copy failed with error: Cannot copy `/Users/a.kitta/Documents/Arduino/with ()/nested_korte`: the file doesn't exist

To reproduce

  • Open a sketch in IDE2 that has parentheses in the path,
  • Click on File > Save as,
  • Specify a valid sketch folder name, and press OK.

It does not work.

I opened nested(with parentheses)/sketch_3 and performed the Save as command.

Expected behavior

It works.

Arduino IDE version

2.1.0

Operating system

Windows, macOS

Operating system version

macOS 12.6.3 and Windows 10

Additional context

From #1901 (comment):

Thanks! I could reproduce it when creating a cloud copy without renaming the local sketch. The problem was in ncp, so I switched to a new lib and added a few tests.
