yes - seeing several problems when space in app name - filed JDK-8217331 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8217331> and will address.

I'm creating a MSI installer. My application name did have spaces in it. I can confirm that changing the --name parameter to something without spaces avoids the issue, though this is still clearly a bug that needs to be fixed.

It also seems that uninstall does not work.  When I attempt it I get this error message from Add/Remove Programs:

[Window Title]
C:\WINDOWS\system32\msiexec.exe

[Content]
Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

[OK]

I can run C:\WINDOWS\System32\msiexec.exe, so I'm not clear on what the real issue is. Maybe a bad message from Windows and the path that can't be accessed is a parameter to msiexec??

I'm using Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17134.471]

    Simple tests of --win-menu and --win-shortcut options on Windows 7
    are
    working for me.  Shortcuts are created as expected when running
    either
    the exe or msi installer generated.

    Can you share the full OS version and full command you use , perhaps
    some combination of options is not working.
