Great, Chris, awesome!  You're amazing.  From the command line, 1822 backs up both letter drives
and UNC (\\server\sharename) remote Paths.  But as a service, as expected, it backs up UNC Paths
but not drive letter Paths.  Good enough for me!  (We'll have to keep our eye for possible
problems pointing UNC to shares on other machines on which we haven't yet passed credentials
[perhaps via a simple unused mapped drive].)

Note that still nothing seems to be printed out in the cmd window, even with the -v option.

Thanks again, Chris.
