If its too late please try the steps I provided to fix it

Describe the bug
86Box Manager allow for user to create/name a folder with spaces included

To reproduce this bug

  • open 86Box Manager
  • (click add or) Add a virtual machine
  • name (the virtual machine) it (ex: hello or this has spaces )
  • after the virtual machine is created select the virtual machine and click configure
  • open any file explorer, go to where the virtual machine is located
  • try and remove the folder

Environment:

  • Host OS: Windows 10 Pro (10.0.19045 Build 19045)
  • 86Box Manager Version 1.7.4

Note:
I'm new to github, If you think this report has an error or i did feel free to correct me

To fix the folder issue:
If you already tried reproducing the bug and can't get rid of the ghost folder you could use 7-Zip and remove the space character (by renaming it) and then deleting it

Screenshots:

Even renaming/deleting it results in error (nor chkdisk recgonize this folder)
