A better way is to use the "~" character.

On Windows, a long directory is the first 6 characters, then "~", then a
number for the alphabetical order of that directory name.

For example, "Program Files" is "PROGRA~1".  Using this notation, you can
avoid the quotation marks entirely.

C:/"Program Files"/"Apache Group"/Apache2/conf/workers2.properties

becomes

C:/PROGRA~1/APACHE~1/Apache2/conf/workers2.properties

An even better way is to reinstall into directories that require neither,
like "apache" and "tomcat".
