This ensures that the entire path is handled as a single item, with the spaces not construed as separators.Does anyone have any tricks to allow a folder to be opened (that contains spaces) with the os.Path.dirOpen method on a Windows client ? Cheers Dave For instance, if the folder location is "C:\Program Files", you can open it with the following code: import os folder_path = 'C:\\Program Files' os.startfile('"{}"'.format(folder_path)) This will open the folder without any problems due to gaps in the path.
