For example, let\u2019s say you had a file named File.txt in that folder. You could run the following:<\/p>\n<pre>type C:\"Test Folder\"File.txt<\/pre>\n<p>However, that isn\u2019t necessary\u2014in most cases, you can just use quotation marks around the whole path.<\/p>\n<p>This solution works both in the traditional Command Prompt (CMD) environment and in Windows PowerShell.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignnone wp-image-694987 size-full\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,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\" alt=\"Enclosing spaces in double quotation marks in the Command Prompt\"\/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sometimes_Use_the_Caret_Character_to_Escape_Spaces\"><\/span>Sometimes: Use the Caret Character to Escape Spaces ( ^ )<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the Command Prompt, the caret character ( ^ ) will let you escape spaces\u2014in theory.
