Hello I am using Windows10 and my Wi-Fi card is Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265.
My ESSID (I will call it 'MY_NETWORK_SSID') has a password that starts with a blank space (let's say ' StartsWithWhiteSpace'), if I do the connection manually it works fine and I get connected, but fails if I do the connection with netsh command using the profile:
Manually:
Select 'MY_NETWORK_SSID' and then use the password ' StartsWithWhiteSpace' and I get connected
By profile:
1.- Once logged manually I export the profile to a file
netsh wlan export profile file=. key=clear
2.- This will generate an xml file, that we can use to connect (I disconnect and forget the network before using the profile)
* netsh wlan add profile filename=c:\profile_password_starts_with_white_space.xml
* netsh wlan connect name='MY_NETWORK_SSID' interface='my_wireless_card_name'
With this 2 steps I am able to connect, but only if the password dont have spaces on it.
The following is the profile generated by: netsh wlan export profile file=. key=clear once I successfully logged manually using the password that starts with one space (I was expecting this same profile will work to login again but it always fails)

Why the own profile generated by the netsh tool doesn't work?
