File path

[GAM]

Hi, Am trying to pass the folder path in the RUN function but its not working, its giving me no result. The code snippet is...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

$FolderPath = """C:\Program Files (x86)\MyProduct\ABC Enterprise"""

Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & """" & @ScriptDir & "\" & "sigcheck.exe""" & " -a -s -q -v " & "" & $FolderPath & "" & " >> " & @ScriptDir & "\Precheck\" & "sigcheck.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I give the path directly in the RUN function then it works...like below...

Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & """" & @ScriptDir & "\" & "sigcheck.exe""" & " -a -s -q -v " & "C:\Test" & " >> " & @ScriptDir & "\Precheck\" & "sigcheck.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)

Can someone help please?

Wow a quote nightmare. You should quote quotes like this '"' , It makes it easier for you to tell the difference.

(Yes it is ' " ' not this " " " ...) don't include the spacing that is to show you can use single quotes not just the double quotes.

$FolderPath = """C:Program Files (x86)MyProductABC Enterprise"""

$FolderPath = '"' & "C:Program Files (x86)MyProductABC Enterprise" & '"'

write out what you want to run as if you had to type it into command prompt. i think you are quoting to much stuff.

It is getting confusing.

The string doesn't look bad. Replace /c with /k so the DOS window stays open and you can see error messages that might appear.

Okay, i hope this works if i read it correctly.

Sorry for the confusion, here is what I'm trying to get the output...

1) I have a tool called "Sigcheck.exe" (this is under the same location "Mc Internals" on desktop where am running my autoit script)

2) The path that I want to check for the target location is "C:Program Files (x86)MyProductABC Enterprise".

3) The command that I want to run is ...

[cmd prompt]"sigcheck.exe" -a -s -q -v "C:Program Files (x86)My ProductABCEnterprise" >> "C:UsersAshuDesktopMc InternalsPrecheck"sigcheck.txt"

if the above folder is "McInternals" (without space betwee Mc Internals" then it works fine)
