Hello, I can only subscribe to what Tomek said. The quotes issue is a symptom of the poor Windows scripting capabilities. It's sad, but there's no way to make Windows scripts _reliably_ work with directories/files having whitespace in their names. In the end you're going to be looking for workarounds to the workarounds.
Just don't use whitespace in Windows and you'll save yourself lots of wasted time.
