When you back up a file or directory using Windows NTBackup from an MS-DOS command prompt and put one or more spaces in the command, NTbackup will ignore the command.
For example:
ntbackup backup "c:\program files\windows nt\accessories"
CAUSE
Because of the blank spaces in the "program files" and the "windows nt" section of the command, the directory will be ignored by NTBackup and the backup will fail.
