Can confirm, this doesn't work either on puter.com or on the latest self-host version.

When trying this locally, on a directory on my desktop named Stuff, the request to /batch fails:

So i'm not the only one to have the bug. Maybe some bugs are server specific (london, ect...), and some others are not.

@Zac0511 yep, I can confirm it's a bug. Looking into it.
