SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Answer 1

You closed the string before you should have. I'm guessing you want the literal " in the string, so you need this:

onedata = str("& "C:\Program Files\test.test")

" makes a literal " character. and \ makes a literal character. This is so that the compiler doesn't get confused between the literal meaning of a character and its syntactic meaning.
