This definitely used to work. I'm going to check it on Windows...
This works for me without problems. I was able to reproduce the error when I filled "/" as the "VSS Project" instead of "$/". There is "$/" by default, therefore by default it should work O.K. This is a problem of the filesystem customization -> resolving as invalid.
Verified.
