Hi Korra,
the problem with quotes appears for the follwing reason:
syntax of START
START ["title"] [path]
It treats the string in quotes as a title of the new cmd window. So, you may do the following:
START "" "path"
First quotes will be treated as a title and second will be treated as a path.
Hope this helps.

It completely solved the problem I was facing in which a cmd window pops up instead of the desired application
