  This is due to an issue with the QHOME environment variable

  See: https://code.kx.com/q/learn/install/

  Specifically: https://code.kx.com/q/learn/install/#step-5-edit-your-profile

  setx QHOME “C:q”

  Note that this points to the folder containing q.k and not to the file itself

  Error is : ‘C:q/q.k. OS reports: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

  When you download q it is included. Folder structure looks like:

  kc.lic 
  w64
  q 
  q.k

  As shown on https://code.kx.com/q/learn/install/#step-3-install-the-license-file
