File names containing blanks must be encased in quotes. For example, if the command line were to be prog.exe -d c:\program files\dirname\file name.txt b.txt then the command line you would type were you to manually start the program would be prog.exe -d "c:\program files\dirname\file name.txt" b.txt Similarly the string you pass as the command line to CreateProcess would be "-d \"c:\\program files\\dirname\\file name.txt\" b.txt" Encasing every file name in quotes independent of if it includes a space is acceptable but optional so this would also work "-d \"c:\\program files\\dirname\\file name.txt\" \"b.txt\"" .
