+description: RMM PowerShell UNC paths via user_session context lose one backslash when using string literals — must build with [char]92
+metadata:
+  type: feedback
+---
+
+Never use `"\\CS-SERVER\..."` string literals in PowerShell scripts dispatched via GuruRMM `user_session` context. The backslash gets halved somewhere in the encoding pipeline, producing `\CS-SERVER\...` (a local path) instead of the UNC `\\CS-SERVER\...`.
+
+**Why:** The `user_session` execution wrapper appears to process escape sequences in the script text differently than `system` context, stripping one backslash from `\\`.
+
+**How to apply:** Always build UNC paths explicitly when using user_session:
+```powershell
+$bs = [char]92
+$base = "${bs}${bs}CS-SERVER${bs}homes${bs}Username"
+```
+This constructs `\\CS-SERVER\homes\Username` correctly regardless of context.
+
+The `system` context (offline hive reg query) showed correct `\\CS-SERVER` output, so the issue is specific to `user_session`.
