nested mkdir inside directory with spaces

Question

This command:

mkdir "watermelon fun"\example

Outputs the following:

PS C:\Users\Andrés\temp> mkdir "watermelon fun"\example
mkdir : No se encuentra ningún parámetro de posición que acepte el argumento     '\example'.
En línea: 1 Carácter: 1
+ mkdir "watermelon fun"\example
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: (:) [mkdir],     ParameterBindingException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,mkdir

Is there a way you can create a nested directory, being one of these a multiple word directory?

Answer 1

You have to surround the complete path with quotes:

mkdir "watermelon fun\example"
