How can I call from a x64 command prompt an x86 exe file (containing a curly braces in its path) ? E.g.

C:\Program Files (x86)\theExe.exe

If I do, the following:

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\

and than call the exe, it works. However, if I call it, as wanted, I get an error, that the exe is mistyped or not existing..

Thanks in advance,
