I'm using rsync to perform backups. But I have errors in paths with spaces.

Wrong space quoting. Try:

Initially I was using cwrsync 6.2.4 (it has the same problem). Using cwrsync
5.5.0 everything works perfectly.
Now I downloaded cygwin and installed rsync (latest version), but the problem
is the same.
How to make this work without using an old version of cygwin?
What shell are you using and what OS is handling command processing?
For CMD and Windows, you must to double quote the whole path.
For bash and Cygwin, you may use any of the accepted methods: \ , " ",
' ', although it is much more normal, if quoting, to quote the complete
path, or only backslash quote the spaces and other special characters.
Drive case should make no difference as long as case is ignored on lookup.
