Unknown options: s3:// error on using CP

Actually the problem is with the blank space " " in your local root.
Just make sure you copy files from root which does not contain any spaces.

I am having the same problem on my Windows 10 aws cli, but am not experiencing this issue with my linux machine, a completely separate machine. I use the following command successfully in linux:

 $ aws s3 cp /path/to/image.png s3://deeplens-test-bucket/sample-set

but this same command when run on a Windows machine:

 $ aws s3 cp C:/This PC/Desktop/image.png s3://deeplens-test-bucket/sample-set

returns the following error:

 Unknown options: s3://deeplens-test-bucket

Other commands work successfully in the Windows 10 CMD, such as:

$ aws s3 ls

which returns a list of each of my s3 buckets that are in sync with this CLI instance.

I also have not been able to find any indication in the documentation why this might be happening. I am using:

$ aws --version
aws-cli/1.18.17 Python/3.6.0 Windows/10 botocore/1.15.17

Should I update my version of aws cli? And if so, is there a different location from which to pull that update than the normal download?

Do not add space in folder names like folder name 1- New folder folder name 2- New_folder

Use the folder name 2 format will work for you.
