Okay.  It looks like the root of your backup is in:

/cygdrive/k/backups/bigboy_backups_rdiff/,

and that you are descending into the backup tree to:

/cygdrive/k/backups/bigboy_backups_rdiff/opt/;080lone-2.5.5/zeocluster, 


and from there executing:

rdiff-backup  -v 5 -r 1h Products /opt/Products

You may be having problems because the path leading to the 
current directory where you are running the command has encoded 
characters.

Either try using a full, unencoded path on the command line:

rdiff-backup  -v 5 -r 1h 
/cygdrive/k/backups/bigboy_backups_rdiff/opt/Plone-2.5.5/zeocluster/Products 
/opt/Products

or move to the root of the backup tree and use a relative path:

cd /cygdrive/k/backups/bigboy_backups_rdiff

rdiff-backup  -v 5 -r 1h opt/Plone-2.5.5/zeocluster/Products 
/opt/Products
