Hi,

Looks like this needs some engineering clarification, so I am here to help.

The issue is not caused by customers adding quotes, but rather something adding them internally in the VMware product.  This matter has been fully resolved in 7.12 and later.  If you are transitioning from Composer to Instant Clones and have previously configured scripts, you may still find issues in 7.12 and earlier depending on what you have configured.  To clarify this further, Composer supports the following scenario, which is not yet supported in Instant Clones 7.12:

<interpreter path> <script path>

e,g, C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe C:\Temp\Script.vbs

You can very easily work-around this by creating either a cmd or bat file, e.g. C:\Temp\Script.bat, and within it you can use the above scenario. Please be sure to use absolute paths inside your scripts.
