Batch file to map a drive when the folder name contains spaces

Question

I am trying to map a drive using a batch file. I have tried:

net use m: \\Server01\myfolder /USER:mynetwork\Administrator "Mypassword" /persistent:yes

It works fine. The problem comes when I try to map a folder with spaces on its name:

net use m: \\Server01\my folder /USER:mynetwork\Administrator "Mypassword" /persistent:yes

I have tried using quotes, using myfold~1 but nothing works.

An easy way would be renaming the folder but I have it mapped in more than 300 workstations so is not a very good idea.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer 1

net use "m:\Server01\my folder" /USER:mynetwork\Administrator "Mypassword" /persistent:yes 

does not work?

Answer 2

whenever you deal with spaces in filenames, use quotes

net use "m:\Server01\my folder" /USER:mynetwork\Administrator "Mypassword" /persistent:yes

Answer 3

I just created some directories, shared them and mapped using:

net use y: "\\mycomputername\folder with spaces"

So this solution gets "works on my machine" certificate. What error code do you get?
