I'm trying to write script with robocopy command but folders with a
space in the name (c:\program files) I cannot copy.
Therefore i tried the commands bellow, one witch quotation marks and
second without it.
Command with quotation marks ends with error No Destination Directory
Specified.
How to write command correctly?

I solve problems with spaces and different czech encoding (in notepad and
in "dos") in directory
names using short names.
i.e. "c:\program files" -> "c:\progra~1" etc
use dir /x to view short names
Works, but... when you are copying folder trees, you generally want the
destination names to be the same as the source names. If you xcopied
"C:\progra~1" elsewhere, it would most probably wind up with its "long" name
and 8.3 name both being "progra~1" - unless of course, one were to script
the creation of individual folders and copy them one at a time. Yuk.
