Hi all ,

Another stupid question about ansible 2.4,

vmware\_guest , folder module really response with very funny way.

it gave error at two different levels ,

1- When VM need to be create it work only with relative path /folder "  
2- When VM already created it work only with relative path " /datacenter/folder\_path

Any idea ?
