CAU Hotfix Plugin - The plug-in argument HotfixRootFolderPath has invalid value

hi. have 2012r2 cluster configured cau in self-updating mode both windowsupdate , hotfix plugins. configuration went fine, when try run cau using these options, fail error "the plug-in argument hotfixrootfolderpath has invalid value".

i've repeatedly checked path correct , browsable , has correct permissions should have. i've tried both disableaclchecks true/false, didn't make difference. path contains space, i've tried enclosing in double-quotes, didn't either.

i've ran cau gui, here's command generates:

invoke-caurun -clustername cluster01 -caupluginname 'microsoft.windowsupdateplugin','microsoft.hotfixplugin' -caupluginarguments @{ 'hotfixconfigfilename' = 'defaulthotfixconfig.xml'; 'disableaclchecks' = 'false'; 'hotfixrootfolderpath' = '\\fileserver\cau\windows server 2012 r2\hotfixes\hyper-v\root'; 'includerecommendedupdates' = 'true'; 'requiresmbencryption' = 'true' } -maxfailednodes -1 -maxretriespernode 3 -enablefirewallrules -failbackmode immediate -force

the root folder contains defaulthotfixconfig.xml per documentation , there's cauhotfix_all folder (currently empty there no hotfixes need install).

as i've said above, tried modifying path in command above to 'hotfixrootfolderpath' = '"\\fileserver\cau\windows server 2012 r2\hotfixes\hyper-v\root"', didn't help.

any idea what's wrong?
