A component of PATHNAME is not a directory

Hi,

I'm trying to export my plots in a html file with a ods html statement. The code is thus quite simple and I never had problem, but I did an update of the software recently and now I get this error message:

ods html file="C:\Users\username\Dropbox\residualplot.html";
NOTE: Writing HTML Body file: C:\Users\username\Dropbox\residualplot.html
ERROR: A component of C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\SAS Temporary
Files\_TD3396_PCC018_\C:\Users\username\Dropbox\residualplot.html is not a directory.
ERROR: No body file. HTML output will not be created.

I'm not sure to understand why it calls for a path that in the \AppData\Local\Temp\SAS Temporary
Files\_TD3396_PCC018_\ folder while I never wrote this folder. How can I fix this?
