Hi there,  
  
is it possible to add parameters to my dos command action?  
I wanted to start like that -\> %Workdir%\GetVersion.exe %Workdir%\PwrHaus.exe /CI /short  
But it starts like that -\> c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c "D:\GetVersion.exe D:\PwrHaus.exe /CI /short"  
I think the quotes are the problem…

Hi Sascha probability the easiest way would be to use the execute program action (where you can specify a specific executable to run). Within the arguments tab you have the ability to easily provide the arguments (one argument per line).
