In past years, I've seen problems when any directories (folders) in the path contain one or more spaces. As a result I have *always* used either camelCase or underscores as separators in multi-word folder names just to avoid the whole issue. Windows itself doesn't care, but some applications, particularly ones with UNIX somewhere in their history, *do* care.
