Collaborator 13.2 and 13.4 cannot login in the command line if the password contains a double-quote

Any time the password contains a double-quote, the login command below raises an exception.  Example: if the password is 123"456, then the login command must be: ccollab.exe login https://collabser...

This isn't a Collaborator problem . . . it is a Windows CMD shell problem.  You will have a problem with other characters as well (like caret ^ and ampersand & and percent %).  There doesn't seem to be a simple clean way to do this.

At our company we have no Collaborator 12.4 server anymore to test, we have upgraded to 13.4.13104, but I can guarantee that the command below worked perfectly fine in 12.4:

ccollab.exe login https://collabserver.io Matei  "123""456"

And now starting with 13.2 the command raises a weird exception.
