Hi All,
Windows 7
In the following
@Result = qqx { C:/Windows/System32/fsutil.exe usn readdata
\"$FileName\" }.lines;
$FileName needs to be in quotes as it can have
spaces in it.
The following did not work:
\"$FileName\"
"$FileName\
$FileName
What am I doing wrong, this time?
Many thanks,

Not sure why this would be any different on Windows.
What version are you running?
Re: qqx with quotes
The following works on FreeBSD:
my $fn = "file name";
say qqx { ls -l "$fn" };
Not sure why this would be any different on Windows.
