I cannot judge, if the solution proposed here, or in #1594 by Pekka is more appropriate. Apparently, the argument shall be dequoted. Both solutions appear to do the job, although I ask myself, why such a complicated script :DeQuote exists, when the solution is as simple as using the %~ notation :)

I understood this microsoft document so, that the variable substitution is only available in for loops:

Maybe on newer windows versions, it's generally available?
