In Power Automate Desktop, create a variable RatePath with the value C:\Users\aaa\Desktop\BankRate and a variable Year with the value 2025.
Add a new step to create a folder, setting the folder Year to be created under RatePath. The following error message appears.
However, if the folder Year is directly created under C:\Users\aaa\Desktop\BankRate, it succeeds.

Microsoft.PowerPlatform.PowerAutomate.Desktop.Actions.SDK.ActionException: 路徑 ‪C:\Users\aaa\Desktop\BankRate\2025 不存在。
於 Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Desktop.Modules.Folder.Actions.CreateFolder.Execute(ActionContext context)

    Try to select the folder path from the "Select folder" so it takes the path in correct format:
