Hi @ebicoglu, I have similar quoting issue in multiple commands being run at Registry with CMD, can you help fix it ?

I am trying to create a .reg file which can be imported in any Windows 7-10 system which after imported, provides a context-menu option to confirm with User whether to delete logs in a specific directory and then open that same directory in Explorer.

Now the .reg file I have created apparently looks correct syntax wise and it also opens the CMD prompt, but it doesn't execute the commands due to error.

Here's that .reg file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\FolderName_Logs]
@="Open folder-name's Logs"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\FolderName_Logs\command]
@="cmd /s /k \"set \"\"LogsDir=C:\\projects\\folder-name\\storage\\logs\"\" && if exist \"\"!LogsDir!\"\" (set /p ch=\"\"Delete Logs? \"\" && if /i !ch! equ 'y' del /f /s /q \"\"!LogsDir!\\*.log\"\") && start \"\"\"\" \"\"!LogsDir!\"\"\""
