Then change into the root folder within that command prompt before executing the loop?
There is no escaping of double quotes via a backslash^^
No clue why there is no syntax checking used...

I assume your %f reference is not parsed correctly.
Switch on script step mode to see what the script actually tries to process and then based on this correct the script accordingly.
