It turned out that the issue was that I was reading the data as

Can you give some examples of what tPath is in these circumstances? Just
to see what sort of paths the engine would have actually have been
passing to Windows.
fixed the issue, so it's fine. But my question would be does anyone
know what would have changed on the system to make this statement, that
used to work, do so no longer?
I suspect Paul is right that this is UNC related - there have been some
security options added related to UNC paths to windows (buried somewhere
in the registry) so it could be that but I'm not 100% sure (I'll do some
experimentation later on).
What version of Windows does the afflicted machine have?
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
