I've checked on windows and here is what I can say about the 
problem.

- Symbolic strings won't work on the "CurrentDirectoy" parameter. 
This is not handled at all. (you would get an error 267). I'll 
add the translation code for this parameter but this is for 
version 3 so not soon.

- I had to verify but the cwd should really be set to the path 
where the application is output. I mean that it's written so. I 
don't know what's happening on your system right now. My windows 
is still win 7 and my dev directory is not in ProgramFiles. And 
I've tested using this simple project: 
https://gist.github.com/BBasile/2e110ed48989b53e2a53b57977a81736. 
You can DL it as a zip, open the .ce file as a project and click 
"compile project and run" you should see the right CWD written in 
the messages.

- You can create a launcher in the custom tools, excluding the 
double quote:
     - as executable type "<CPO>"
     - as CurrentDirectory type "<CPP>"
     - as alias put something like "Run this project"
This will work if the binary is compiled in the same directory as 
the binary that's produced. Otherwise you can adjust by adding 
directories after the symbol. (e.g  "<CPP>bin\release").
