Almost forgot I checked NTFS and share permissions and they are both full control.

Yuo need to quote teh path because it has spaces and other illegal characters in it. Using [] can create issues in some instances.

Share permissions should be set to only 'read' or the executables can be altered by viruses and trojans.

On a share 'read' is 'read and execute'

I found out it it needed quotations.

I think someone posted that here about two weeks ago. Youy must have been asleep for that one.
