命令行参数中应用程序的传递路径

Question

In my application, I am passing some command line arguments to schedule a task.
str is a string which after some operations becomes

/create /tn StartIE /tr "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://abc.com" /sc onlogon

And then I start a process as:

ProcessStartInfo ps = ProcessStartInfo("schtasks");
ps.Arguments = str;
Process.Start(ps);

When I look into the task scheudler for the scheduled tasks, I get Action of schedules task as:

C:\Program
and the Arguments as: Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://abc.com

So, the problem is because of the space in Program Files. How should I correct thing thing, so that the actual program remains
C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe http://abc.com
and Arguments = http://abc.com ?

I believe you need to pass your quotes in escaped so they can be 'extracted' by the schtasks process. Your string should end up containing:

/create /tn StartIE /tr "C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe http://abc.com" /sc onlogon

But I suspect it actually contains:

/create /tn StartIE /tr C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe http://abc.com /sc onlogon

Which means when you create it you should be targetting:

/create /tn StartIE /tr \\""C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe http://abc.com\\"" /sc onlogon
