You could try wrapping the name in quotes. I think you mentioned you  
are using INNO Setup. You will need to double-up the quotes to escape.  
Here is an example from my .iss file:

Root: HKCR; Subkey: "ScreenSteps\shell\open\command"; ValueType:  
string; ValueData: """{app}\ScreenSteps.exe"" ""%1"""; Flags:  
uninsdeletekey
