Task Scheduler - Start In Directory Contains Quotes Which Isn't Supported #1715

Using the latest version 2.1.13.974 (RELEASE, PLUGGABLE, 64-bit). I had moved my location of wacs.exe so I knew I needed to update the scheduled task. I manually updated the path in the windows task scheduler under the the Program/script and the Start in (optional) fields and proceeded to test. I got an error so I removed the task and used wacs.exe to re-create the scheduled task. After re-creating it the task still got an error.

After some research it appears that it has to do with having spaces in the directory path. Quotes are required in the Program/script field, but the Start in (optional) field cannot have quotes, and wacs.exe is putting in quotes in that field, causing it to error.

I've got the task working by manually editing it. This is probably something that should be tested to confirm what I'm seeing.

Thanks!
