Normally, you are required to post the full output on this list to get help.
In this case, the snippet you posted was enough to know the problem, but in
the future make sure to do it.

You must use normal ASCII double-quotes, like that: "...", instead of
asymmetric double quotes like that: “...”. You may also use single
quotes/apostrophes (the ASCII symmetrical one, again) or no quotes at all if
your filename does not contain any special character. Peruse the
documentation for your shell to know the difference it makes.
