If you still can't get it to work and it gives you a "too
many arguments" error (for example, "My Documents"), try this. 

Type in:

d:\student\MYDOCU~1\HOMEWO~1

Where the actual path would be d:\student\My Documents\Homework

Basically, if the string is greater than 8 characters, it'll
tell you "too many arguments", so just take the first six
letters (exclude spaces) and then a ~1 after that. Should
work as long as there's not another folder with the same
starting six characters.
