in thread Proc::Background does not take file path with spaces

I tried the folllowing 
my $CommandNew =   qq("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\vs.exe");
print "Command is $CommandNew\n";
my $ID = Proc::Background->new($CommandNew);

[download]

ERROR: Test.pl: cannot find absolute location of "C:\Program

Also tried 
my $CommandNew =   q(C:\\Program Files (x86)\\vs.exe);
print "Command is $CommandNew\n";
my $ID = Proc::Background->new($CommandNew);

[download]

ERROR: Test.pl: no executable program located at C:\Program
I am still stuck

    See Re: Proc::Background does not take file path with spaces for one such possibility.
