Setting up JavaFX in IntelliJ - VM options not working at all

I've been going through Stackoverflow answers for a while now, but none works. Basically I want to run JavaFX in intellij and created the basic JavaFX project. I'm using JDK/JavaFX 13.0.1. I added it under libraries as well. The path is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-13.0.1\bin\java.exe

But when I try to set the VM-options, I get

Error: Could not find or load main class Files\\Java\\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\\lib
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Files\\Java\\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\\lib

In the VM options I have --module-path %path% --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml

for %path%, I have tried everything I've seen on stackoverflow:

C:\\Program Files\\Java\\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\\lib
\C:\\Program Files\\Java\\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\\lib\
\C:\Program Files\Java\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\lib\
C:\Program Files\Java\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\lib
same with / instead of \. 

What the hell is going on, can someone please help me get it running?

If the path you are referencing in the VM Options contains spaces, it should be surrounded by the double quotes ("):

-module-path "C:\Program Files\Java\javafx-sdk-13.0.1\lib"
