• The \ character is used as an escape character. To use \ in a value, it must be escaped. For example:

InstallationPath=C:\\Program Files\\Flexera\\fnmea\\analytics

• Trailing space is considered to be significant, and will be included as part of the value
• Leading space is not considered to be significant, and will be ignored by default. To intentionally include leading space, you can escape it with \. For example:

DbPassword=\ cspassword
