Quotation without the Closing Mark
What will happen if a quotation is missing the closing mark in a batch parameter? I entered 3 quotation marks (double quotes) in the command line.

If a quotation is missing the closing mark in a batch parameter,
that parameter will be extended to the end of the line.
Quotations have higher precedence than redirection operators (< and >) and command joining operators (& and |).
So if you have 1, 3, 5, or any odd numbers of double quotes in a command, the last double quote will open a quotation that reaches the end of line.
Count the number of double quotes in a line to make sure it's an even number.
Here are some examples on using quotations without the closing marks:
C:\fyicenter>Parameter-Cleaned.bat \Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office (Parameter-Cleaned.bat) (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office) () () () () (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office) (\Program Files\Microsoft Office) C:\fyicenter>Parameter-Cleaned.bat \Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office > nul (Parameter-Cleaned.bat) (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office > nul) () () () () (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office > nul) (\Program Files\Microsoft Office ) C:\fyicenter>Parameter-Cleaned.bat \Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office & echo Hi (Parameter-Cleaned.bat) (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office & echo Hi) () () () () (\Pro"gram Fi"les\Microsoft" Office & echo Hi) Hi (\Program Files\Microsoft Office )
Notice that remove quotation mark code did not work correctly with redirection operations and command joining operators.
