Answer 1

The only way to do it is to pass the arguments inside double quotes, like this:

Program.exe "D:\My First Directory" "D:\My Second Directory"

There is no other simple way. Operating system just works like that. One string is one argument.

You could do some wise mechanism though. I wouldn't do it, I would just put those directories in double quotes.

But if I for some reason REALLY, REALLY had to do it, I'd do it like that:

• get all the arguments into one string
• magically split this string into list (array) of strings, using regular expressions (looking for string like: "D:\\", of course as a regular expression).

But it could only work if you can only have directories in arguments and nothing else.
