Notas

The snapshot folder path must include a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) or File Transfer Protocol (FTP) designator, for example:

    objMerge.AltSnapshotFolder = "file:\\Distributor\Backup\Snapshots"
    objDistr.AltSnapshotFolder = _
  "ftp://distributor.company.com/backup/snapshots,1433"

It is recommended you use the sp_copysnapshot (Transact-SQL) stored procedure to copy a subscription manually.
