Composer fail installation on PHP path

Im trying to install Composer.exe, and it always fail after I choose php.exe file and click next, with an error:

enter image description here

The PHP exe file you specified did not run correctly [exit code 1]: D:\Software(x86)\wamp64\bin\php\php7.0.10\php.exe

Program Output: 'D:\Software' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Thing is: Path to the php.exe is valid. I have php in env variables, so if I run cmd and type in php it runs... But if open cmd and type in path that I gave to the composer so D:\Software(x86)\wamp64\bin\php\php7.0.10\php.exe It respond with 'D:\Software' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. too.

To clarify, I restarted computer after php installation and I after added env variables. And this is in my env path var: ...;D:\Software(x86)\wamp64\bin\php\php7.0.10\

I installed xampp on D:\ Drive and it didnt work too, then I uninstalled it and istalled it on C:\ and it worked... Dunno what was the problem, if someone can explain, please do. Thanks

I guess you have to escape the braces in windows. Either with a backslash or the complete folder with quotes
