N00bish question

Frequently (when I start using double vpn), I have to start openvpn with a command line in the command window (I'm on XP). For exemple, the openvpn.exe file is in C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin, and the .ovpn file is in C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config.

If I type in the command window:
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openvpn C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\MyConfig.ovpn, it doesn't work, because "C:\Program is not a known command".

So, I type successively in the comman window:

cd C:\Program Files\PP_OpenVPN\config
..\bin\openvpn.exe  MyConfig.ovpn

I would like to make a .bat file doing the same thing in one click..

You need to add quotation marks if the path contains spaces. Try this:

"C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\openvpn.exe" "C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\config\MyConfig.ovpn"

If you still want a batch file:

@cd /d "C:\Program Files\PP_OpenVPN\config"
@start ..\bin\openvpn.exe MyConfig.ovpn
