Trouble with Chapter 15, exec & execSync, string interpolation of process.execPath on Windows 10

mburakeker

The code is:

${process.execPath} -e "console.log('A'); throw Error('B')"

Due to my node.exe being located in "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe", the space between Program and Files giving me the following error:

`
err Error: Command failed: C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe -e "console.log('A'); throw Error('B')"
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

at ChildProcess.exithandler (child_process.js:308:12)
at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:315:20)
at maybeClose (internal/child_process.js:1048:16)
at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:288:5) {

killed: false,
code: 1,
signal: null,
cmd: C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node.exe -e "console.log('A'); throw Error('B')"
}
subprocess stdout:
subprocess stderr: 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
`

Wrapping ${process.execPath} with " quotes solved this issue for me on Windows 10
