As I understand, I need quoting for the spaces and quotes for the |, but I am only allowed to use the quotes once.
Any ideas how to quote this command line call correctly?

Spaces are used for separating Arguments. In your case C:Program becomes argument. If your file path contains spaces then add Double quotation marks. Then cmd will recognize it as single argument.
