When using backslashes to address a filepath, you’ll have to use another backslash to escape the backslash. So your example would change to:

import os, sys
DesPath="D:\\Payout2\\Jul 39"
DesPath2="\\\\192.168.17.9\\Pictures\\CureSheetPhoto\\WareHouse\\Jul29"
if (not os.path.exists(DesPath)):
	os.makedirs(DesPath)
if (not os.path.exists(DesPath2)):
	os.makedirs(DesPath2)

Edit: Changed the DesPath2 to correct the slashes prior to the IP

I think DesPath2 should look like this:

DesPath2="\\\\192.168.17.9\\Pictures\\CureSheetPhoto\\WareHouse\\Jul29"

You’re right, thank you for the correction. I’ve corrected it above.
