The syntax for proper path handling when the path may contain
parentheses (such as C:\Program Files (x86)...) requires quoting the
entire assignment expression:

set "var=%val%"

any other way of doing it may interpret the parentheses and cause
failures.

This currently prevents any windows release on x86 from running altogether.

yeah there are still some oddities around the service installation bit, but I ran out of time. I'll try to revisit again later.
