"zip": "C:\\\"Program Files\"\\7-Zip\\7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 yes.zip folder\\*"

Problem

Trying to make this work, in a package.json file ``` "zip": "C:\\Program Files\\7-Zip\\7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 yes.zip folder\\*" ``` But it doesn't work due to ``` 'C:\Program\' is not recognized as an internal or external command, ``` I've tried this with identical non-working results ``` "zip": "C:\\Program\\ Files\\7-Zip\\7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 yes.zip folder\\*" "zip": "\"C:\\Program Files\\7-Zip\\7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 yes.zip folder\\*\"" "zip": "\"C:\\Program\\ Files\\7-Zip\\7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 yes.zip folder\\*\"" ``` How can I do it? Thanks
