Though similar bugs have been recently reported, some troubles with synctex option still persists.

The command

texify --pdf --tex-option=--synctex=1 --tex-option=-aux-directory=TeXAux --tex-option=-output-directory=. "Braginskii(s).tex"

fails with the message

C:\Users\Igor A. Kotelnikov\Documents\Мои книги\PlasmaBook\Braginskii>x-option=--synctex=1 --tex-option=-aux-directory=TeXAux --tex-option=-output-directory=. "Braginskii(s).tex"
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.11 (MiKTeX 2.9)
entering extended mode

No log file is generated. However

texify --pdf --tex-option=-aux-directory=TeXAux --tex-option=-output-directory=. "Braginskii(s).tex"

or

texify --pdf --tex-option=--synctex=1 --tex-option=-aux-directory=TeXAux "Braginskii(s).tex"

works fine from the same directory, Setting absolute path instead of relative one does not change the matter. Though setting output-directory is not required in this particular example, it is done so by WinEdt macros.
