THE ERROR MESSAGE! READ THE ERROR MESSAGE!

The filename includes colons and that's not gonna work on Windows. It's not a problem with the directory, it's that $y includes invalid chars for Windows. C'mon, it's right in front of you.

    As much as I hate to rain on your parade, it appears* to only contains one colon, and that looks like it's specifying a drive path. Surely this should work in perl?

    * I say appears because I don't see where $y is defined, and it may contain a colon. But I can't tell.
      Geeze, not you too!
