BFP-I-407: Debugger / Query : crashes when computer name contains a " " (space)

https://bigfix-ideas.hcltechsw.com/ideas/BFP-I-407

As of version 10.0.7, the Windows Fixlet Debugger crashes if you select Evaluate → Query Channel … and enter the name of a computer containing a space.

To reproduce:
Launch Fixlet Debugger.
Select Evaluate → Query Channel using [QNA|Client]
Authenticate as needed.
Enter a computer name which contains a space [e.g. “BigFix Mac”]
Result: Fixlet Debugger crashes.
Event Code: 10001

Workaround:
Substitute the HTML “%20” for the space. [e.g. “BigFix%20Mac”]
Result: Fixlet Debugger connects and functions as expected.

Please fix this issue in a future release.
