| | Invoke-Item cannot find paths with special characters I've aliased "start" to "Invoke-Item" so I can use it similar to how I did in cmd.exe (to launch a doc in word or a folder in explorer). Unfortunately, it seems as if powershell isn't properly escaping special characters. For example, PS C:\Users\jaraco\Music\james\Laid [UK Expanded]> start . Invoke-Item : Cannot find path '.' because it does not exist. At line:1 char:6 + start <<<< . Note that '.' does in fact exist... and is the CWD. |
