As I understand it, extended Windows paths always have an eight-character short version formed by the first N characters (usually 6) plus ~ and one or more digits. Usually "Program Files" was "PROGRA~1" (you can confirm that by doing "dir C:\PROGRA~1" and seeing if it matches; if not, try PROGRA~2, PROGRA~3, etc. till you find it), so you could try specifying the path that way.
