Now that my e-mail finally made it to the list, I should add that I have found a workaround in the meantime:
OSProcess command: 'cmd /C start /D "', theWorkingDirectoryPath, '" ', theCommand
But it pops up a console window briefly and does not look very elegant.

Hi,
Is it true that the Windows version the of OSProcess plugin does not support running a process in a different directory than the one in which the VM itself runs?
I found primGetCurrentWorkingDirectory, but no setter equivalent.
There are accessors for pwd in ExternalWindowsOSProcess, but the value is never used. Disappointing decoy...
The two primitives calling CreateProcess only supply NULL for the lpCurrentDirectory parameter.
Have I missed something? I could not imagine that the requirement to run a process in another directory under Windows did never arise for anybody.
Kind regards, Jakob
