Bug description

Trying to use Google Drive as a destination results in a 400 error even with a proper OAuth generated with no issues. I am pretty sure the connection to Drive is the problem somehow. Note: I am using a google drive through a University institution. I have used this google drive with previous versions of Duplicati.

Steps to reproduce

• Try to create a new backup with Google drive
• Generate OAuth, pick destination (I picked a folder in the root directory for my Google Drive).
• Click test connection.

Actual result: 400 error.
Expected result: Good connection

I have figured out the problem. I was typing in a google drive path using \ instead of /. Once I started using the forward slash it worked fine.

Great, also got this problem. It would be very nice if there could be a warning for this in the GUI.
