The directory name is invalid - V1701.3.0

Hi,
I have an odd problem that has started since the latest upgrade (1701.3.0, VS 2015)

When I do a clean build (Build/Clean, Build/Build) the build fails with the following message:
Compiling 'HPArduinoI2CWebSkt' for 'Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328'
The directory name is invalid
Error compiling core
Build failed for project 'HPArduinoI2CWebSkt'

To try to find out what is going on I set Verbose messages on in vMicro compiler and the Project builds correctly, no errors.

From then on, with verbose set to off everything builds correctly unless I do a Build/Rebuild when the invalid directory message reappears, Build/Build continues to work correctly though.

I swap from Arduino to ESP8266 builds and both exhibit the same peculiarity.

Thanks, I thought that was fixed in the last release. I will take another look.

Click rebuild instead of clean, it does the same thing but without the error. It's a missing build folder (deleted because of the clean) confusing things sometimes.
