This can be fixed with the option `cmd /s`, which prevents interpreting quotes on the rest of the command line. The result is as if the rest of the command line had been typed verbatim at the command prompt.

I've tested the `:clean` and `:apps` tasks on Windows, Linux, and macOS:

On Windows 10 20H2, `:clean` and `:apps` fail before and succeed after the fix.
On macOS 10.15.1, `:clean` and `:apps` succeed before and after the fix.
On Ubuntu 20.04, `:clean` succeeds before and after the fix. The `:apps` task fails before and after the fix:
