 >   I do not care about the default shell

Probably you should care, because your system()-call is using it. 
Apparently the product isn't aimed at one specific shell, but you are 
using one specific shell (CMD.EXE, most likely) instead of some 
assumed shell.

W.r.t. a shell. Perhaps first try mr. Ko's suggestions first. Maybe 
the behaviour still is wrong, I'm not going to advocate why there's 
one assumed default, while there's not one specific target shell. 
Perhaps it shouldn't touch your "wrong" string, albeit I'm not 
familiar with the way the choosen default string processes 
backslashes. Maybe it has to modify the string.
