    Description

      Current Situation

      • When installing the Universal Agent on Windows, if you have create the service as a specific user instead of as the default local system account, and that user's password has a double-quote in it, the installation will fail at the service creation step with a "the syntax of the command is incorrect" error.

      Desired Behavior

      • It should be possible to specify Windows service passwords that include a double quote.

      Maintainer Note

      • We take care of this issue. At the same time let me add a warning: service account and password that are specified during installation are added in clear text to the installer response file (.xml) that can be used for later re-installation.
      • It is therefore fine to specify the service account/password during installation with dev environments. For more compliant environments you should always manually specify the service account with the Windows Service Panel after installation.
