Apparently my notifications for gist are working again.

@diaverso , based on the error it looks like the function is wanting 2 parameters but not receiving 2

@francesco1119 , likely you have figured out a solution by now. Sorry notifications were not working for a long time. If you still need assistance feel free to respond. My initial thought would be to run a schedule task with the PowerShell script

@nutt318 , likely you have figured out a solution by now. But it is possible to do a unix-style rsync option to create directories as needed. If you haven't figured out a solution feel free to respond.

@Yelleko , likely you have figured out a solution as well by now. My initial thought would be to uncomment line 59 and add a pipe to output it to a file `Write-Output $DesFile | Out-File -Append -FilePath file-upload-log.txt
