Hello, Dave I am using these registry entries with command one-liners to launch
bash and mintty from the Windows 8 explorer context menus.  They works fine
with directory names containing apostrophes (e.g. "C:\t'e s  t\"). Take a
look on it if this can be adapted for the first method (-1) of chere to
address the problem with the apostrophes for it.
