I may have guessed (incorrectly?) that the problem was
with the z path rather than the desktop path because variously:
o I'm pretty unfamiliar with Windows.
o I overlooked the "lcd".
o It never supposed that a Windows utility would be incompetent
  to deal with a fully-qualified NTFS (FAT-32?) path.

I just rejoice that I'm (mostly) not afflicted with Windows.

I believe it's configurable by admin to be either ~ or TSO prefix.

Is there a desktop utility to create XMIT?  (The OP says "Uploading".)
I suppose it depends on the desktop.

There are *always* translation issues!  ISO8859-1,  UTF-8, CP1252,
CP037, CP500, CP1047, ...
