first argument does not load in dxvk config set by DXVK_CONFIG

example (using Windows .cmd or .bat file........ or Windows Environment Variables)
set DXVK_CONFIG="dxvk.hud=full; d3d9.enableDialogMode=True"
in these case 1st arg dxvk.hud=full not working

but if i insert ; before first argument also then it's working....
same example with ; inserted
set DXVK_CONFIG=";dxvk.hud=full; d3d9.enableDialogMode=True"

Works here, and I don't really see why this would be any different on Windows?

I can reproduce that there indeed seems to be a quirk with it on Windows that isn't present on Linux.
Not sure exactly why, though in the environment variable gui if you leave out the quotation marks (" ") then it works without needing a extra ;

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2024-07-18 github

The log above explains what's happening, the quotation marks become part of the string for some reason and confuse our parser. This doesn't really look like a bug to me, just some Batch syntax quirk, surely there must be a more correct way of setting env vars there.

Nniresh1234 2024-07-22 github

yes..... without double quot(" ") is working....

and replacing doubleQuot with semicolon in beginning and ending also working

like set DXVK_CONFIG=
;dxvk.hud=full; d3d9.enableDialogMode=True;
or
";dxvk.hud=full; d3d9.enableDialogMode=True;"

but it's just an experiment, not actual solution

Not sure what you're expecting us to do here? We're not supposed to see the double quotes at all.

Nniresh1234 2024-07-25 github

I THINK

IF
    Without DoubleQuote"_" working fine in windows (without any issue)
THEN
    It should be better to add some NOTE in DXVK description/readme (about this)

This is only an issue on Windows and Windows isn't the target platform for DXVK anyway.

BBlisto91 2024-07-25 github

It works as expected in powershell fwiw

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2024-07-25 github

That makes two ways of setting this up that are known to work on Windows. If Batch cannot express strings in the format that we expect them in then honestly I'd just recommend not using it at all if possible, or to work around its quirks on the script side of things.

@niresh1234
this has nothing to do with dxvk at all. not even with the config syntax. this is internal windows workings.
you need to use the setx command. tested it: working!
make yourself familiar with it via setx /?
