--argument=value - The value for an argument must be enclosed in quotes if it contains spaces.

Arguments
Additional arguments may not be required for a command. For example, the --version command does not require any arguments whereas the --list command does. See the help for a command to determine whether additional arguments are required.
Output Options
By default, all output is printed to "stdout". However, in some cases the --file switch can be used to send output to a file. See the help for a specific argument to see if it supports the --file argument.
Getting Help
You can always use the --help argument to get more information about the current argument list.
For example, to show the available commands type:
SyncroSim.Console.exe --help
But to get help specifically for the --list command type:
SyncroSim.Console.exe --list --help
