Maps and Spaces

Cartes et espaces

    Calling ‘Program Files’ folder by its real name

    Published: August 12th, 2010 — Updated: November 20th, 2025

    Trying to call R from, say Java?

    C://Program Files/R/R.exe

    returns an error as the Windows command line has trouble interpreting spaces.

    Use this call instead:

    C://program~1/R/R.exe
