try copying the gdb to a simpler folder name without spaces and report if an error occurs

You could also try specifying a folder as the destination and a *.dbf as the output type, since the output can either be a gdb table or a *.dbf file in a folder

The "Zonal Statistics as Table" tool in ArcGIS can sometimes throw an error if the file path contains spaces. To resolve this, try the following:

1. Move the input files: Place your input data (both raster and shapefile) in a directory with no spaces in the file path.
2. Rename files or folders: If the folder or file names contain spaces, rename them to remove spaces (e.g., "My Folder" to "MyFolder").
3. Use short paths: Use short file paths (e.g., C:\Data\ instead of C:\My Data).

This should prevent the error from occurring.

It likely has nothing to do with the filepath, I've been running various Arc projects with a space in the filepath for the past 4-5 years.

Try and manually browse to the file to add it as an input. In random situations (like the one that got me to this thread) I have this error pop up if I'm dragging a layer from the project contents to an input field (or selecting in dropdown), if I instead use the browse button and select the layer in a .gdb it will work fine.
