Did you look it up? Error 123 is ERROR_INVALID_NAME.
Your quoted line there has two backslashes at the beginning. Is that
literally in your query string? Two backslashes at the beginning of a
path can be confused for a network share.

No, the actual query string doesn’t have a backslash. While iterating through all the files in C:\ drive, i am getting this error ERROR_INVALID_NAME . I would like to know while calling FindFirstFIle for a particular folder, if GetLastError() returns something like 123, should i stop processing and move to next folder or should i abort processing of iterating the folders in C drive altogether?
