C:\Program Files (x86)\DotR\DotR.exe
I know I need to escape the backslashes like C:\\Program Files (x86)\\DotR\\DotR.exe
but it still doesn't work. Do I need to handle spaces and parens as special characters and if so, how?
Edit with details: I'm running a small console application from the context menu. When I save it to C:\DotR.exe and add to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\DotR\
the value C:\\DotR.exe %1
it works fine but when I try to make it C:\\Program Files(x86)\\DotR\\DotR.exe %1
I get an error message that says application not found. I want to save it in program files and not C root.
I was using regedit. The quotes worked, thanks. – pdizz – 2012-09-24T20:25:28.017
