Here's a tip for those playing along at home…

Never, ever write code like the above. Always be explicit in your variable declarations. The correct way to write this is:

set sourcePath to quoted form of POSIX path of ((path to desktop as text) & "get archives AppleScript - stripped.scpt")

set targetPath to "/"

Yvan's code is a bug waiting to happen.
