Hi @Tim_Ouimet

I typically do not use directories with spaces for my ORACLE_HOME when I test on Windows; however, in the past I have encountered issues writing the log directory when I leave it as default. As per the readme, test with

 -log_dir: (optional) The default directory is OAS_SPB_<VERSION>/tools/spbat/generic/SPBAT/logs or you can set your own location. The directory should already exist and be writable. Windows users should specify a custom log location with a shorter path in order to prevent long path issues known to Windows platforms.

If still an issue, please file a service request. These patches are tested, so it could be a unique or unknown issue.

I was successful once moved to a path with no spaces. on Windows - Java unpacking didn't work. Didn't recognize as a valid jar. 7-Zip worked beautifully.
