>Summary: Console: Can't execute command with space in pathname

Initial Comment:
I'm trying to execute

"C:\\Program Files\\cygwin\\bin\\sh.exe"

using

runCommandInConsole(view, "System", "\"C:\\Program Files\\cygwin\\bin\\sh.exe\"";

but it complains about "C:\Program" not being a known command.

If I cd to the directory first, I can execute sh.exe without path.

How can I execute the command without changing directory first?
