Hello, Thanks for your answer.
I have made a put of the command f1 = "d:/sat - Copy.png" f1 = f1.gsub(" ", "\ ") cmd = 'cmd /c "start ' + f1 + '"' puts "CMD: " + cmd system (cmd) ....and the result is the following one: cmd /c "start d:/sat - Copy.png" In attachment, I've putted a picture with the error.
