Question:
I have noticed that in the Target field for Tekla Structures shortcut, there are quotation marks around the path to the TeklaStructures.exe file. Are they really needed?

Answer:
The quotation marks are there to avoid possible problems if the path contains spaces. If you have installed Tekla Structures to a path that does not contain spaces e.g. C:\TeklaStructures\ there will be no problems even if you remove the quotations marks. If you have installed Tekla Structures to a path that contains spaces e.g. C:\Program Files\Tekla Structures\ the quotation marks are needed.
