autorun.inf - shell\..\command with command line parameter doesn't work

[kakii]

Below a piece of my autorun.inf file I have problems with:

shell\slides00 = slides '&slideshow all'
shell\slides00\command = _Tools_\XnView\xnview.exe -slide
_Tools_\slideshow\slideshowfile1.sld -ini _Tools_\XnView\xnview.ini

The slideshowfile1.sld is physically present in folder as indicated in
the shell\slides00\command line. I have checked it.
-slide is valid command line option of xnview application
_Tools_ folder is subfolder of root.
If I invoke this context-menu position the error message is being
displayed: The file <_Tools_\slideshow\slideshowfile1.sld> couldn't be
find.
I have no idea if this message comes from windows or from xnview.
It doesn't mutter if I use this syntax for shell\..\command or
in open line. In both cases the .sld can't be find.

Some suggestions why it isn't working ?

For all your hints thanks in advance.

Note the dot leading

.\_Tools_\slideshow\slideshowfile1.sld

alternatively, try escaping the backslashes

_Tools_\\slideshow\\slideshowfile1.sld
