This is a problem of missing quotes from the file associations you have
configured in Windows. The default install does not configure any file
associations, so you must have configured this manually, or using a
third party installer. If you did it manually, look for a %1 argument
where you configured it, and change it to "%1". Otherwise submit a bug
report to whoever provided the installer.
