There are two cases identified where pathcompletion on windows doesn't work as expected.
Case 1
when TAB si pressed after drive letter with colon (without backslash, eg. "C:", "E:"), it doesn't offer any candidates and instead behaves like ENTER on empty input, ie. confirms the default value.
Select the installation path: [C:\Users\Administrator\EAP-7.2.0] C:<TAB> Select the packs you want to install: 1 [x] [Required] [Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform] (29,97 MB) 2 [x] [AppClient] (27,6 KB) 3 [x] [Docs] (12,46 MB) 4 [x] [Required] [Modules] (171,8 MB) 5 [x] [Required] [Welcome Content] (2,15 MB) Total Size Required: 216,4 MB Press 0 to confirm your selections Please select which packs you want to install
If installation is finished after this, EAP is installed in location "C:\Users\Administrator\EAP-7.2.0"
Pathcompletion on drive with backslash works fine (eg. "C:\", "E:\")
Note: on 7.1.0 it is too broken, but in a different way, after C:<TAB> the candidates from current dir are offered.
Case 2
the other case is when path contains space in name, eg. Program Files when TAB again triggers confirm-default action.
Select the installation path: [C:\dev\EAP-7.2.0] C:\P<TAB> PerfLogs\ Program Files (x86)\ Program Files\ ProgramData\ C:\Program<SPACE><TAB> Select the packs you want to install: 1 [x] [Required] [Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform] (29,97 MB) 2 [x] [AppClient] (27,6 KB) 3 [x] [Docs] (12,46 MB) 4 [x] [Required] [Modules] (171,8 MB) 5 [x] [Required] [Welcome Content] (2,15 MB) Total Size Required: 216,4 MB Press 0 to confirm your selections Please select which packs you want to install
This is a regression against 7.1.0 where such completion is done correctly.
