[Tex/LaTex] LaTex \include space in path

includepaths

It's not graphs. It's a .tex file that I want to include. I used \input and it worked fine. But as I keep writing more and more, the file got bigger and bigger and I decided to use chapterbib to make the reference clearer. I used natbib and I found for chapterbib to work, I must use \include and not \input.

When I changed to \include, it wouldn't compile any more. 

I can't write on file `"Literature review/M.aux"'.
\@include ...\immediate \openout \@partaux #1.aux 

\immediate \write \@partau...
l.67 \include{"Literature\space review/M"}

(Press Enter to retry, or Control-D to exit; default file extension is `.tex')
Please type another output file name
! Emergency stop.
\@include ...\immediate \openout \@partaux #1.aux 
\immediate \write \@partau...
l.67 \include{"Literature\space review/M"}

I found this but it doesn't work.
How to make \include work with a quoted string path containing spaces?

I tried some combinations.

This works: \include{review\M} (supposing I have a file call "M.tex" in folder of "review" and the folder "review" is in the same folder of my base tex file)

This works: \include{"M\space 1"} (supposing I have a file call "M 1.tex" in the same folder of my base tex file)

But this doesn't work: \include{"Literature\space review/M"} (supposing I have a file call "M.tex" in folder of "Literature review" and the folder "Literature review" is in the same folder of my base tex file)

Someone asked if this works: \include{"Literature review/M"}. No. It gives no error, but the output will simply be review/M.

I found someone said to change TEXINPUTS in bash. I did not understand it at all. I'm using windows. I don't know how to change the path.

I found this did not work either. How to include graphics with spaces in their path?

How could I make it work? Thanks!

Update:

I replaced all the spaces with underlines and still it didn't work. Is it because my file is too deep? It is \include{{"Folder_A/B/C/D/M"}}. LaTeX still reported that it could not write the 'Folder_A/B/C/D/M.aux' file. So perhaps it was not the spaces that caused the issue in the first place.
Any idea?

For the name ‘amo amas amat’, this works under TeX Live on GNU/Linux:

\documentclass{book}
\includeonly{
  "amo\space amas\space amat"
  }
\begin{document}
\include{"amo\space amas\space amat"}
\end{document}

and this works under MiKTeX on Windows:

\documentclass{book}
\includeonly{
  {"amo amas amat"}
  }
\begin{document}
\include{{"amo amas amat"}}
\end{document}
