 In the 2.9.3 update bp-core/bp-core-attachments.php line 1317 changes from

 `if ( ! is_dir( $cover_dir ) ) {`
 to
 `if ( 0 !== validate_file( $cover_dir ) || ! is_dir( $cover_dir ) ) {`

 Using validate_file on a directory will always return 2 in a Windows/WAMP
 environment because a directory is always something like

 `C:\Apache24\htdocs\buddypress/wp-content/uploads/buddypress/groups/4
 /cover-image`

 This produces a general error with the default message on a WAMP install
 that upgrades to 2.9.3.

 I believe it also affects line 450 as that uses validate_file on
 $type_dir, but I have only confirmed it on line 1317 with $cover_dir.

 If I roll just that line back to 2.9.2 version cover update works great.

 Thanks,
 Andrew
