Odd batch file error: Invalid argument / parameter: - 'eq'

Question

I have a line of BAT code written as follows:

tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq WerFault.exe"|find /C "WerFault.exe" > temp.txt

This went on for quite a few days, but unexpectedly I received an error message:

error :Invalid argument/option: - 'eq'

The code was not changed before and after this error message, I can not understand what the problem is.

What did they do:

• Omit one quote
• Replace another quotation mark with a Unicode character 201c
