On the other hand, regular console commands and many console applications for Windows work as expected, so there must be a way to deal with this properly

It is pretty easy to handle, but must happen at a higher level than buildNormalizedPath.

Use GetCommandLine to fetch the original thing the user typed, then process it yourself.

But buildNormalizedPath cannot do this itself because its argument doesn't necessarily come from the command line.

Your main() function could use it to get the string you pass to the other functions though. That's probably what most the Windows built in things do when they need to.

Thank you all.
